I know a lot of y’all are lonely, but I still haven’t seen a good real life example of a mistake or inefficiency that could have been prevented by us being in the office. It seems more like some folks just need social interaction and work was their only social outlet. And others have a need to micromanage.

Anyone else use work as their escape? People complain about not having work life balance but I only stay for the long hours.

I'm in a more financially secure place now but my marriage has mentally exhausted me. We're just together for the kids at this point.

Bit of an odd situation. Recently started reporting to the COO of a company we acquired. She’s still trying to figure out the politics and doesn’t know how to navigate leadership yet. She had me put together a deck under short notice so she could present in the exec meeting today. My old boss would invite me in for the part of the discussion that was relevant to me but new boss just setup time for us after. Also inefficient. Feel like a junior again. How to nip in bud for future?
