Back when I was in the office, we all just messaged each other while sitting next to each other mainly because we are programmers and our productivity suffers the moment someone interrupts out concentration with a question and we can respond to IMs whenever we are at a stopping point. Honestly working from home is exactly the same for me now than what it was when I was in the office, except...

• I no longer have to sit in my car in traffic with my stress levels out the wazoo.
• I no longer have to dress "professionally" with slacks and a dress shirt.
• I no longer have to smell the microwaved fish every Thursday
• I no longer have to physically interact with other employees who did not wash their hands in the bathroom
• I am no longer getting sick since the same employees who didn't wash their hands, would always also come in to work sick as a dog.
• I no longer have to deal with people's armpits smelling like onion because deodorant goes against their religious beliefs.
• I still wake up at the same time, but now I have time to exercise in the morning and go on nice walks with my dog.

Yeah, working in an office sucks (at least for me)
