AskABoss: 'I hate working from home'
I hate working from home. I’m based in a big city, and I live in a small one-bedroom apartment. My office has always let people work from home when they needed to, but during the pandemic, we’ve been 100 percent remote. Many of my co-workers have embraced it, in some cases moving to country homes or other cities. But for me, working from home has been extremely isolating. Our jobs don’t lend themselves to a lot of group projects, so now I can go days without talking to any co-workers.
How do I communicate this without sounding like the person who wants to ruin everyone’s work-from-home fun? Or am I just stuck and have to accept it and maybe find a new job? But people who love it also have legitimate reasons for loving it. For many people, it’s a dramatic quality-of-life boost — they have more time with their families because they’re not commuting, they’re eating better and saving money on food because their own kitchens are right down the hall, they’re happier not dressing up or wearing shoes, and they can focus better and are more productive without colleagues popping in all the time.
