Comment on Ask HN: Has remote work made you procrastinate more?

Comments

It definitely has, mainly because I lack motivation for my work (very underpaid, boring tasks, temp contract). At the office there was more social pressure to do something other than reading the news, and I got some enjoyment from random discussion with co-workers. Now all that's left is endless boredom and apathy. I also struggle to separate work from my personal life due to living in a small apartment, I definitely could use a separate room to use as home office.

I believe WFH would work great if my job was motivating and I could afford a proper house with clear physical boundaries between work and leisure. Small apartments are absolutely depressing if you have to spend nearly all of your waking hours in them.
