WFH Pros (at least for me):
1. Flexibility is priceless. I get up at 8:30 AM (used to wake up at 7 AM when it was WFO). Some days I work even at 10 PM, some days I don't touch my laptop after 4 PM. This flexibility is valuable.
2. I don't have to drive for hours or get stuck in the traffic. $$$ saved in fuel.
3. Can have lunch whenever I want. Earlier I was forced to have a lunch between 11 AM and 1 PM as everyone went for lunch during that time. Now, I can have my lunch whenever I want, while sitting on a chair, with my feet on the couch, and my laptop on the desk in front of me. :)
4. I cook more at home now. $$$ saved
5. Me and my fiance love spending time together.
6. Don't have to dress up everyday in the morning.
7. Can't say for others, but I always hated unnecessary office chats, which would severely lower my time management.
8. Can watch an episode or two on Netflix, when bored.
9. Even a 5 mins quick break can let me put dishes in the dishwasher or clothes in the washer. This might not look as a big thing, but imagine coming back home from 8 hours of work and 2 hours of getting stuck in traffic only to see your clothes waiting to be put in the laundry.
10. Sometimes I prefer working on the couch, or the bed, or the backyard or by the swimming pool. A small change like this can lift your mood sometimes. Also love staying in the blanket and working.
11. I play fetch with my dog all the time. It's so easy.
12. Can be lazy af (sometimes I take a quick 30 mins nap) if I don't have much work or if I know I can procrastinate without pushing the deadline.
I might understand the Cons that others might suggest, such as free food at office, or staying with your so the entire day, but these don't matter to me that much
