Now we have to live 150+ miles out in order to get 2 nights. The memo was signed by a one star. Is there any way to fight this or is this one of those “welcome to the Army” things because the changes were made by a general?

Tips to stay motivated and cut procrastination? I started a new client side job remotely a few months ago at the beginning of covid. I know that I'm extremely lucky to have landed a role during shutdown, but lately my motivation has taken a hit. My entire team of two people is new, and it's definitely been odd to onboard remotely. Things are not as fast paced or as exciting as agency side, but I have also been dragging out tasks due to procrastination and just feeling lost. How can I do better?
