Dylan Vergara left a high-paying roofing sales job for remote work, but struggles to switch off when his office is just another room in his home. He stays up all night unable to shut his brain down and wonders if others feel this trapped, even though he'd choose WFH again.
I refuse to believe that I'm the only one that will not compromise on having a work-from-home sales job, but I don't even like working from home that much. Like, I have to physically leave and come back or physically go somewhere to work in order for my brain to be ready to go to work. Like, if I just wake up, walk from one box to another box, it feels painful. Like, I can, I can do it when I need to, but it feels painful. And on the flip side of that, when I'm done working and I'm supposed to walk from this box to this box, That's hard. Like, I end up staying up all night and I can't turn my brain off. Is there like some science behind that? Am I the only person in the history of the world that's ever felt that? Like, I wouldn't trade the work-from-home opportunity for anything. Like, I left a high-paid door-to-door roofing sales job to get that. Truly a first-world problem. I mean, I'll pick this problem over other problems, but there's just no way I'm the only person that feels this way.
