[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry, OP, I really am. I’m saying this gently because I know it really, really sucks to have to return to the office, but you *need* to work on reframing the situation in your mind. You will have to adjust your bedtime. Try to do it gradually. Keep your bedtime the same on weekdays regardless of whether you’re staying home or going into the office. It’s cold and windy today, but overall, we’ve had a warm winter and it’s generally good to get outside for part of the day. Focus on solutions, not your feelings. How can you arrange to drink good coffee? How can you prep healthy breakfasts ahead of time? Bear in mind that the silver lining of a deadly worldwide pandemic was getting to work from home. That was the aberration. Returning to the office is the norm. Remind yourself that you were lucky to get to WFH for *years.* Find something you actually enjoy doing in 5 minute increments and do it while you wait for virtual meetings to start. If you keep stewing about how miserable it all is, you will only feel worse.[/quote]

Why? There is absolutely zero reason why I need to be in-person for my job.

I haven’t invested in commercial real estate, though. [/quote]
Oh, are you quitting today? I was under the impression you’d be going in again after today, until you find a new job.[/quote]
