I know this will vary a lot, so hypothetically let’s say you currently WFH/work remotely at least 3 days a week. Your commute to work takes an hour max (door to door) each way. If you were given the choice of a 4 day week working onsite, or a 5 day week WFH (or as many days as you’d like) for the same pay, which would you choose?

    Thank you! I’m not able to work so I can’t say with certainty which one I’d choose. I think WFH because it just seems more flexible to me - and I don’t like people, or getting up early, or commuting. And it’s better for the environment and cheaper for me. But having a 3 day weekend every weekend sounds great! I wonder if my life would have a clearer home/work balance and if that would make me happier 🤷🏼‍♀️ I was just interested in what people who do work think, I didn’t expect any hostility from such an inoffensive question!

      I’ve got pretty severe ADHD so WFH is a mixed bag, it’s great to have the flexibility but some days I dig myself a hole of not actually doing anything and putting myself under severe pressure to get stuff done in way less time than I would have, and so on. If anyone in the comments has any tips on overcoming this they would be gratefully received :D
