If I was working again I'd rather work at the office. I wouldn't be productive working at home. I need accountability. Not everyone likes working from home

That's fine if it's your choice, but there are a number of various reasons working from home may be better for other people.

I had the same assumption about myself before 2020. Turns out I'm way less distracted at home because I control the things that would distract me. So I'm much more productive. Was actually a huge surprise to me.

that is true, my 2 bros are in tech and they are usually are at thier desks at all times anyways. remotely in public is probably to distracting. its the reverse if your studying a subject though, like as a student. home is too distracting, even writing resumes and cover letters too.

Why do you even care? You don't get paid more if you are productive.

I don't get this mentality but ok.
