I got to join a few meetings remotely today since I had some things going on at home. It was amazing to be able to do that! My husband works a hybrid and this morning I realized it would be nice to have a job where I could do that someday. Do you feel like you would enjoy working remotely sometimes? Would you be as productive?

My husband also works remote and he loves what he does, but I couldn't do it. I am a hands on learner and enjoy moving around which makes sitting down and being on a computer quite overrated. I am solar powered as my best friend calls it and need to exercise and use all my abilities during the day, so remote work would not be up my alley. If you think remote work really is something you are interested in, do you think you will look for a remote job in the next two years, or will you put it off longer? I am always curious about how people decide to transition.

Haha I love that you are "solar powered!" And maybe... it just depends. I also enjoy learning hands on like you and I think I am much healthier because I physically go to work and have to walk around and be active with the kids.

Yes! I loved working remotely. I loved NOT having any kind of commute and being able to balance work and getting stuff done at home. I had more time to eat well, exercise, and was better able to take care of my home and my family during the remote teaching time (Covid). And I loved that the parents needed to be involved and that I did not have to deal with behaviors. It was great for me.

Same. My kids said it was their best year to have me home with them. They were homeschooled so nothing changed for them. I loved not dealing with behaviors. The worst I had to do was mute people. lol I had more time to do things around the house without a commute and I ate more real meals. I'd totally be down to remote teach.

How have you combated your fear of rejection? I fixate on such small things as when my friends, for example, reject plans I have made. This definitely makes me more averse to putting myself out there and makes me ruminate on past perceived failures, which are clearly not good for personal growth

I’ve been working to an unhealthy degree lately. And I’ve been making the excuse that I have a lot of work right now, but I’m starting to wonder if I’m addicted to it. Part of it is anxiety and perfectionism. But my behavior is now actively harmful to myself and starting to harm my marriage.

How do I stop? I’m not talking work-life balance. I mean, how do I say, “I don’t care that the client wants this tomorrow and I’m not close to done, I’m going to sleep tonight”?

Good evening all,
With my partner we are considering making a move to the countryside of Switzerland, with a gorgeous RE project offering incredible views on immaculate mountains and lake. However, it is far away, and will require 1h+ train/car commute vs. 10 min biking right now. We are scared it will bite us back at some point, although COVID helped w/ remote working being a new norm. The project will be done 2024, so I hope to have a more relax job by then. Any similar experience to share?
