What caught you off guard when you transitioned to work from home?

Didn’t realize how much I relied on small talk. That 5-min coffee chat or hallway convo

Getting distracted by my own freedom. Like I could do laundry at 2pm… and then suddenly it’s 6pm and I’m behind.

The hardest part for me was stopping. I'd glance at Slack at 10pm “just real quick” and suddenly be working again.

meetings. SO many more meetings. like y’all could’ve just Slacked that.

My back absolutely wrecked me. Didn’t realize how bad my home setup was until I started getting legit neck pain. Invested in a real chair and it changed everything.

I didn’t expect how lonely it would get. I thought I’d love the peace, but turns out I actually liked overhearing office banter. Had to start doing co-working calls just to feel human again 😅
