I don’t have a car, so if I have to go ‘back to the office’, I will have to use the bus, wake up earlier, and commuting (even with my current employer being 15’ away by bus) is still 30 minutes out of my day that I don’t want to spend. When I am at home, I can just stand up, play some piano to relax, or have a short shower. Things that help me calm a little bit that I can’t do at an office. I also have a better setup than the setup at the company’s office, so why bother.
To be honest, as long as companies open remote positions, I don’t think I want to go back to any office whatsoever.
preach!
