I can get the same at home

Personally I find home more distracting than the office. The office is a clean work space with a desk with only my work computer and work stuff and everybody around me is also working.

Home has chores and errands and 'fun' and all kinds of other Not Work stuff to tempt me away from working. Plus once my kids come home from school, quiet concentration time is effectively over.

But as I said, I'm not advocating for mandatory return to office, and I do work at home 1-2 days a week.

It's funny how serving one's employer has become the highest duty.

Work not done? After-hours issue? Then work overtime. Kids are home? Go to the office to avoid being distracted from work.

Or, I go to the office, focus for 6 hours uninterrupted, get done what needs to be done, and then go home and not think about work at all for the rest of the day.

After a day of work at the office I would never have left the kitchen as dirty as a day of work from home.
