Is #5 true?

I want it to be true, but I am wary of the fact that people say that not because it is true, but because they also want it to be true.

My own anecdotal experience suggests that, yes, people do slack off more if they are remote.

1. Depends on the person. 2. Depends also on the kind of environment they have at home. (e.g., living with kids in small apartments is a distraction, etc.) 3. Do not underestimate how much people can slack off in the office.
Definitely agree with point#3, people tend to underestimate how much time is slacked off in office.
