Benefit of WFH: Avoiding Distracting people

Nov 22, 2021 11 Comments

Ever since we started coming back to the office more regularly, My manager has been coming around and showing me pictures on his phone almost every hour. It’s really mundane stuff, like him and his boyfriend on vacation or eating soup last night or digging holes for backyard landscaping.

Anyway, I noticed that my manager had the same silverware that I have when I saw one of his cooking photos so I mentioned how I liked my silverware too. Stupid thing to say, right?
My manager actually invited me over to cook with him and his boyfriend.
I was flattered, but I explained that I don’t actually cook. I just order on DoorDash all the time (duhhh)

Then my manager said I should come over anyway. Cmon man, I’m trying to work. Then he got the hint and clapped me on the shoulder before striding back to his office.

Anyone else have distracting coworkers?
