Hello all. I wanted to check in and see how everyone is doing. I had a 3 day weekend and tomorrow I go back in to work. When this happens and evening comes I always find myself wishing I had full time work from home because life seems so much easier to handle that way. I don’t care if it was ironing clothes. I just want to be at home. But for me, to get out and work here in town is best for me and my innerself. What about you? How are you today and how was your weekend?

Hybrid is definitely the best way. I was recently laid off from a job that was remote and then was forced to 5 days a week. I was great working remote, but learned that I wasn’t really bonding with any coworkers. I dreaded the office. No one was friendly and I didn’t work with anyone from my team. They had social events that I helped host but the other teams would isolate.

I had a member of our team come to work in my office from NYC for a few days and it totally changed my perspective. The office became tolerable. I think you have to find an in office Bestie someone that you can chat about work with talk about your life, go grab a coffee and do social things at the office.

I work remote and I feel like I’m rotting away. Zero social interactions, gaining massive weight from emotional eating, and sometimes crying in bed because I hate my job, and lost all my social skills.

Can you change that to Hybrid? My best friend is also going through it. However, life just threw my friend a curve ball so I do not believe she will have those issues for at least a couple of years. We shall see.

My firm allows us to work from home whenever we want/need to. Most of the time I find myself preferring to be in the office to see coworkers and I am usually more productive and less distracted.

Would you just talk to the Partners at your current firm or look elsewhere?
