      My kids are less distracting than the folks who walk into my office to chat while I’m in a working session. “Are you in a meeting? Yes? Oh well, You should have seen…”

      A quiet desk with your dog next to you or… soul-crushing commute and a noisy office?

      Gee, I wonder why people are generally more productive at home?

      Plus there’s a multitude of studies showing that people work far less than 8 hours a day, even if they are physically present at the job. I doubt productivity actually drops at all.

        I worked in a government office that supported a very seasonal industry.
        My coworker had an 8:30 start and would be done her work by 9.
        Other times we wouldn’t have time in the day to finish, but the slow season was hell.
