I work from home a lot because I need to get shit done. Being in the office is too damned distracting. Everyone had a snow day last week. Everyone was surprised how much they got done. Also, water is wet.

Yea, similar deal for me; got a list I need to do and when home alone I can knock it out before lunch.
Bu at the office, I'll spend all day in meetings and people wonder why stuff does not get done.

It's worse than that. You have to stay all 8 hours, even if you finish early because 1. they don't want you leaving early and 2. you won't get paid. Whereas at home, you comfortably and stress-freely complete the work at the highest level and can use your time as you please. The office is just horrendous.

I usually work remotely on Thursdays and get much more done than when I am in the office. I make a point of having quantifiably more to show for my workday when I'm out of the office to justify it to the pointy haired boss if he ever decides to get cunty about it.
