So the Governor is pushing for state agencies to do what they can to keep state employees working from home. Not only until this pandemic is done, but from here on out. He is touting that a Aitasker survey says that people are more productive and work an extra 1.4 days/month from home. https://www.airtasker.com/blog/the-benefits-of-working-from-home/
Yet on the flipside there is another study by a Stanford Researcher that says people may be more productive, but then there is a significant decrease innovation. Plus this study points out the economics during this pandemic that keeping people in their homes now to work affects ones mental health because when they are done with work, there is still fear of being exposed to the COVID. Yes, people no longer have to commute to work, but we need to see and be around people and meet face to face for mental reasons. I would really like to hear from a respected Human Psychologist to get their points of view. https://news.stanford.edu/2020/03/30/productivity-pitfalls-working-home-age-covid-19/. I believe that in today's world there are many ways you can read data and you can always find a way to counter someone's findings. But I struggled for 2 months working from home and being productive. So I moved back to office last week and am feeling more positive, more productive and am back to a routine and purpose to get up and head in.
What are some of your thoughts out there?
Speaking of that.....I have to head to the office for work.
