    Cubicles are terrible until your office gets converted into an open concept, and then they seem amazing. Home office is best though.

      Home Office can also really suck if you don’t have a dedicated workspace at home. Spending 10-12 hours at the same place with no reason to leave the home for days can really fuck with your emotional state.

        I am not a social butterfly. Work was where I did my 10 minutes of socialising per day. Now that I’m fully WFH I can feel my conversational skills just freefalling…

        WFH is great if you have a partner or kids, but as a single person it genuinely is a terrible way to function

          Even when you have that, it works better if you already had a friends or family network. It is hard to make new friends without some existing commonalities.
