Maybe it depends by the kind of people. When i worked from home for the COVID, I was extremely non-productive. I played on steam 12 hours a day, then quickly finished my tasks in 30 minutes

For me, it does not work, unfortunately because i am easily distracted and in an office full of people i am less likely to fell in a 4 hours rabbit hole after a reddit post

So you were just as productive (completed the same work)

I played on steam 12 hours a daY

But you had more free time to enjoy your life.

This means you were more productive working from home than working in an office.

Glad I wasn't the only one scratching my head at that. The guy finished all his work and then called himself unproductive. How brainwashed is that?

[-] Moonrise2473@feddit.it 1 points 1 year ago

did not do the exact same work, did a rushed half-assed version of it

I'm super unproductive in the office and basically glued to the coffee machine. I'm easily able to double my productivity on a good day. Some days are bad, sure. But that happens at the office as well.

That was always an issue I ran into. In a given month I might have two of three days that my brain just didn't work. I'd stills go into the office and be absolutely unproductive. But to my boss, being in the office was the important thing. As I only got ten days of PTO a year including medical leave and business holidays I was never going to waste it on a mental health day. Was far better to sit at my desk and pretend like I was productive.

Hope your are better now. Or at home, chilling on those days ๐Ÿ’–

[-] jecxjo@midwest.social 1 points 1 year ago

Back then I was doing work that required way more brain power than now and had extremely more ridiculous schedules than now. And I'm WFH on a team that has no desire to go back to the office.

Me too. We're spread out over the whole country and even further.

then quickly finished my tasks in 30 minutes

Sounds hella productive to me. For your job, it doesn't matter whether it takes 8 hours or 30 minutes as long as all assigned tasks are done at the end of the day. For your personal wellbeing, private situation and overall productivity, being done in 30 minutes matters greatly as you now have 7.5 more hours to yourself while being just as productive as before.

I'm with you. Adults with ADHD really should not work from home. I mean, I LOVE my work from home days, but pretty much because it's just a day off but with answering work emails and calls.

[-] charles@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

Personally I'm the opposite. I only have so much control over my environment in the office, but at home I'm able to build an environment that's way more productive for my brain. I'll still go into the office as required (usually about a day every week or two) but I literally have to plan my workload around those days since I know I'll be way less productive.

[-] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah. I probably would do much better if I had to consistently work from home. For me it's usually just surprise maintenance issues.
