100% remote was always a goal anyway and my company right now is 100% remote. We don't have an office to return to and we're spread across the country anyway. This was a change, though. Before switching jobs, I worked in a SCIF on classified projects, which can't be done remotely so I had no choice.

For me, it's barely even really a choice. Thanks to spine problems, I can't sit for long, but of course standing all day is too hard on the legs, so practically speaking I took frequent resting breaks and was lucky there were places to lay down, but no work could be accomplished while doing that. Now I can work from bed and actually work. I was also limited because I can't realistically commute by driving myself, so that meant I worked at a place that was near a train station. Also meant I needed to live near a train station.

No longer having those kinds of restrictions on my life is tremendously liberating.
