    I miss working in an office, getting the train to work, seeing the sky, banter with my colleagues, the odd drink after work, having a normal relationship with my boss.

    WFH is torture for me. I don’t leave the house because I don’t need to. I rarely see my colleagues except on Teams, and my interactions with my boss are strained across several slightly passive-agressive (or not! they could be fine!) emails

    I wake up in the morning and the only interaction I get is a green dot on my colleagues faces. I literally strike up conversations with the postman because I’m so starved of contact

    What always get me is that they don’t want you to talk to each other. People get in trouble all the time for that. They want you doing something more productive, this isn’t a social club, etc., etc. Either they want to micro manage you or your building is losing money being empty. That’s it, those are the two reasons they want you back.

    lol … it does make it easier to unionize a workforce when everyone sees each other in person more often

    You’re posting a lot. 301 posts in 8 days… that’s over 1.5 posts an hour if you’re up 24 hours a day!

    Maybe you should take a break?

      If they are quality (or even relevant) shares or content then it’s a good thing. Well, for us as content consumers, maybe not a healthy thing for them to be constantly online - but who here is going to cast that first stone?

        I think (now) 304 posts in 8 days is excessive for a regular healthy person and I don’t think that’s a wild thing to say.

          They could be retired.

          This is something i can imagine doing myself, when i’m retired.

          My dad chose to only costume content and did it in all the wrong places.
