Sometimes, but I usually end up sleeping in a bit (my usual commuting time) so that gives me some extra energy to get through the day!

Why only when you are WFH ? 🤣

Ok this makes me feel much better about my own naps

Catnapping is actually proven productive.

Only if not busy? If I’m on the bench why not

Guilty if I have some down time during the day and things are quiet and getting towards EOD. I’ll rest for about an hour or so and then get back to work, especially if I’m planning on doing a bit more in the evening since I don’t have a commute. It’s also nice to sleep in a bit more since we can be in our comfy clothes and just log online in the morning. I loved it today w the snow day!

like

Usually work even longer to get more done given there’s no commute involved. Smh

like

Absolutely, no longer than 20mins. All I need to get re-energized.

I’m usually way to caffeinated to even think about napping (or eating), but when I have west coast clients and I’m east coast I definitely take advantage of some extra sleep in the am; although, I usually work late to comp.

Yup

Yep and 🍺 sometimes!

I think you mean... do you actually WFH in between naps?

like

Yes - I’m working regularly with folks in EMEA and Brazil so i’m on very early morning calls (e.g 5:30 AM) . A mid-day nap allows me to catch up from getting up so early. Still putting in the hours so the nap doesn’t really impact anything

like

I do not take nap but is won't mind if I get time. Most of the time I end up working more than when I am in office.

like

No such thing as a nap for me. It's either no nap or I'm in a coma for the rest of the day.

like

Yea I’m so envious of everyone on this thread that’s capable of these 20 min naps. I avoid working from home cuz I know I will nap and wake up two hours later terrified

like

Yes. Yup. Uh huh.

I don’t only because I want to sleep at the same time every night no matter if I travel or not. If I sleep during the day time, I don’t get sleep until late night.

But I watch random shit in YouTube, Netflix during day time when wfh.

Not if I go over from EY to BCG.

What are your strategies for completing work efficiently? How do you figure out how long projects should take? A consistent piece of feedback on my yearly reviews has been that I over-bill & spend too much time on assignments. It’s something I actively work on, but I still have no concrete sense of how long I should spend on basic tasks (e.g., drafting a motion to dismiss). My firm is right to expect that I manage my time better as a mid-level associate. WFH has made my time management worse.
