[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP.  Glad I'm not the only one. At 180k. I can get my work done in about 2-3 hours most days[/quote]

I am so glad OP started this thread, I make 160k in middle management, work no more than 10-15 hours a week. I WFH 4 days and it all sounds great on paper but I am bored out of my mind. Just for context, I don’t have any pending deliverables, can finish my work really quickly because I am good at it

My kids are 14 and 16, this job provides a great work life balance so I am scared to change jobs. Once again,  boredom is my biggest challenge, maybe I should go into office 2-3 days and that will alleviate this feeling of not being productive.[/quote]

What the what? Are they monitoring you while you are on your computer?  Tracking mouse clicks so you HAVE to fake work for 40 hours?

If you really have tons of idle time, learn a new skill like programming or setting up your own AI or build an app; maybe you could even automate some of your business and be even more idle. Read a book, master go, watch the criterion collection on your phone.

I worked as an intern at an office job pre-internet, stuck in basically a closet all summer long ignored by the staff. I mastered Microsoft Hearts and taught my self access programming and build a database for their documentation in my off time.

You have the entire worlds knowledge in your pocket, how can you be bored??[/quote]
