Remote work is changing everything for me

Started working from home 6 months ago and honestly it's been a game changer. I get to eat lunch with my kids, see them after school before the chaos starts. My productivity went up somehow even though I'm more distracted. The commute time is now dad time. Only downside is my 5yo thinks 'being home' means I can play unlimited games. Having to set boundaries but totally worth it.

Six months in and you're still in the honeymoon phase probably but yeah it's hard to go back once you've had that option. The commute time alone changes everything.

This is the dream. I'm stuck in an office but jealous of guys who got remote setups. The flexibility with kids is everything.

Remote work has been life changing for us too. Being home for lunch means I actually know what's going on with the kids instead of hearing about it secondhand.

Same here. Just knowing I can be there if something comes up at school or if someone's sick makes a huge difference in my stress levels.
