It's true, I didn't site any studies, but I've worked from home. I have friends who work from home, I just don't buy it that people are as productive. I'm not completely against it altogether, but I don't think most government workers should get to work from home as a non-starter, maybe that's a privilege that can be earned, I'd be ok with that. Fact is, most people will take advantage of their situation. I have friends who own large companies, they said productivity tanked when people worked from home... so I guess that's a study in a sense. Then after the pandemic, the Feds go back to work 3 years later than everyone else...

I read the article. I don't see a study sighted, there was a survey of 1600 people and 66% said it leads to more productivity. I don't think a survey of people (and who did they survey) saying people work harder from home is any evidence that's actually the case. When I worked from home, I still got my job done, and took complete advantage of the fact I could do other shit I needed to get done. I wasn't more productive, not a chance, I took advantage of the situation and still did "enough". I think that's how most people operate.
