I can work remotely productively, even with kids at home and that I am more productive than being in the office.

I've learned that I can be very fast in changing environments and being able to do my job from home after the very next day I've started working from home, without disruption, on a new, unconfigured machine.

I've also learned that interviewing for jobs has become something horrible, with most ghosting and coding challenges well done but poorly reviewed, maybe due to the high number of candidates/required salary expectation.

I find that even with 12 kids, working from home is productive. The difference is that I can go do a bit of work between other tasks. If I have an hour to spare and need to walk to work, about 50% of the time would be walking. It just isn't worthwhile. At home, I can put the whole hour to use. Also at home, I know I'm there for emergencies, so my wife can go out to run errands.

Likely Mormon, they do that. Source: grew up across the street from a Mormon family. No value judgement, it's just the only pattern I see that matches.

Catholics? Hasidic Jews? They also have large families sometimes. It indicates a lot of love between the parents, in any case!
