Anyone can make browsing the web look like work from a desk. Frankly, I get more work done at home without being distracted. I’m pretty chatty at work and I could engage in long, usually work related, conversations without actually getting any “work” done (software).

Also, if I wfh I can get an extra hour of sleep and take a nap on my lunch break, which makes my work higher quality.

It’s all about control.
