Microsoft said that employees who spend three or four days in the office have higher Thriving Scores โ€” a metric that measures employee well-being.

Personally, when my company started forcing everyone back to office three days per week, I quit. I hated it so much. Because it affects my entire life.

I dont want my coworkers and bosses to be part of my life. I didnt pick them, I dont like some of them, and there is a huge feeling of hierarchy all the time. It sucks.

For me, I have given up. Since I cant think in office, I just produce shit code because im tired of trying to think in that environment. I just stopped trying.

At home, in my home lab, I put a lot of effort in to make it just work, with lots of thoughts about simplicity, unity, security and so on. But when I work on my home lab, I do it from a mental state of fun and no pressure or interruptions. Its a different world.
