Fair point! I like my job I have to say but after 4pm is my time, although my work isn't so hectic I need to work after then, bar the odd emergency.

I hear that. Jumping between calls and taking notes as you go, usually spend the last hour of my day writing up minutes I hosted throughout the day or updating my to-do list Planner based on the notes I've taken. I have started blocking me calendar from 5-6 so I can use that time to recap the day. Worse is when someone uses the Time for a meeting anyway even though its blocked

Lads complaining about having to work whether it’s from home or both home and office since this started, spare a thought for people that have not got that luxury

Ah Daithi..... come on now. I dont think the lads are doing anything of that nature. It's simply comparing wfh against office work, nothing more.

There's more than a hint of self-importance about it though, which I feel Daithi picked up on as well.

Its been a major change as a result of the pandemic. I think people are just talking about the own experiences after a year, of something they haven't been accustomed to.

Have to say I love working from home now, got 2 monitors sent out from the office and also collected a chair from the office last summer so have the perfect set up. No 3 hour round commute means more time to myself and getting up at close to 9 rather than 6.30/7am is great!
I did work one day a week for a couple of months last summer, feck all traffic and free spaces to park as everyone is out so drove in and enjoyed the commute, much nicer in a car than on a bus anyway!
I was in the job less than 3 months when all this sh*t kicked off so hadn't really had a chance to get to know people that well in the office outside of my own team and hadn't developed a close relationship with any of my colleagues like I had in my previous job so don't miss the social aspect of the office too much. |

I think it's just part of the modern mindset. Most people know, deep down, that the jobs that they do are almost completely worthless, but they still need the validation that they aren't and thus feel the need to talk about it to get that validation. |

Yeah it’s the same as the mortgage / extension threads tbh. Nobody is stating ‘look at me, I have a house’. Just posting what’s topical at the moment as there is nothing else to talk about. Next week it will be all about the squad and how many goals will we beat Serbia and Luxembourg by. |

I do think once some level of restrictions lift like being able to go out for lunch or a gym then the doom and gloom I am under will lift. This last lockdown and its slow burn has been just tough all round.

Suppose it's a valid enough point. Have a good few friends in the Theatre industry that only wish they had my complaints! I get that I, with a few others, am speaking from position of privilege on this.
