The factory schedule mentioned above would kill me.

Look for a new job, OP.


Oh boy. Thank you. You just proved my point.

Not really. What the poster did was prove that flex working hours meet individuals needs for lots of different reasons. Some people might exercise during their lunch break, some might nap, some might do an errand. All totally fine and a huge benefit of working from home.

Being forced to work remotely 5 days a week permanently is worse.

Thank you, PP. WFH arraignment also provides me with working with dignity and the company with a productive high-achieving employee. I’ve won multiple awards for the company, never missed deadlines, and constantly get praised for my work.

+1 and not just to the PP, but to her employer who is able to reap the advantages of her skills and knowledge with her working from home. the anti-wfh people seem to think that employees are fungible - and perhaps to an extent they are. but to the extent they are not, then flexibility means that people who wouldn't otherwise be part of your workforce can be - you have a much wider pool of workers, with a wider pool of skills, than if you only hired people in your immediate physical area who were willing or able to come into an office five days a week.

As I said, you believe people are fungible. It seems PP's employer does not. Also the ADA requires reasonable accommodations.

For the ones complaining about op, many companies were 3’ days a week before Covid. So yes 5 days a week is a bit much.

I am not crying about my nap. I am good at what I do, and my employer does not care HOW I do it or when. I produce better work than many in my field, even though they work from an office.

NP. From the description, I doubt there are throngs of similarly experienced and successful workers to step in and take PP's place. That person sounds like a superstar. She manages to succeed despite health challenges.

To that poster, I don't have chronic pain, but my DD does. I watch her manage it to the best of her ability every day, while still finding ways to be successful. I haven't lived it, but I have a window to your struggle. You sound amazing! Don't let the haters get you down.
