Being able to pick up my kids from school.

Not showering.

Okay

Lots and lots of perks but my favorite is not have 1.5 hours of commuting time every day. That’s now time I spend running or walking the dog, prepping dinner, hanging out with my kiddo.

All of the above.

nice try, elon 🤫

That’s the meanest thing anyone has ever said to me

Some people might feel using a bathroom you don't have to clean is a perk of working at an office (not to mention free toilet paper!)

Working while laying down in bed without even changing my clothes

Not getting sucked into silly office gossip/drama
