So my work output is not so good.
I am struggling to adjust to working from home.
I spent nearly 32 years in a comfy, HVAC controlled office environment. The temperature was always kept very comfortable no matter how hot or cold it was outside. I never had to worry about the HVAC. Now, after all those years, I got tossed out on my butt for being old. Of course, the company would never admit to that. They made sure to cover their butts with department restructuring. Still, I was out. Suddenly, I was faced with figuring out how to make a living. Nobody in my field was hiring 53 year old guys. And if they were, it was at about 30 percent of my original wage. So, I went to work for myself. I commandeered a guest room and made it my headquarters for trying to make a living. But, working from home and working in an office are two very different things. First, it’s your house. The probability that your focus will be divided is very high. There is always something that needs to be done. However, I had to resist that urge and simply bear down on working. I got better at this. Sticking to strict office hours was a key. The other key was decent HVAC comfort. I live in a very warm region and I like to work in cool surroundings as this helps me stay focused. However, it is stupid for me to cool my entire home way down during the peak heating hours. My HVAC guy fixed that by creating a zone control for my office so now I have a thermostat for just that space. The rest of the house stays the same.
