There’s also to take into consideration the fact that people experience dips of productivity throughout the day. Like, I’d never be able to start something that requires most of my brain power after 3.
For others it’s early morning.
So, when I was in the office I would just kill time, go on coffee breaks or just do fucking nothing until it was time to go home, and I know for a fact that it was like that for most of my colleagues.
No one works 8 hours straight out of an 8 hours work day. Working from home just removes the torture of sticking around looking busy.
I actually complete from home the same amount of tasks I used to at the office, really, because my productivity (and that of others) wasn’t constant there either.
Not to mention that some jobs just have expected downtime. I’m a Sr Systems Engineer, and a very large part of what I get paid for is just knowing the system and being able to hop on and fix problems immediately.
If I didn’t stretch my work out to look like i was hitting 40h a week, I’d get bitched at by people who don’t realize that I’m largely an insurance policy.
