I never really 'clicked' with working until I worked from home. Like, this entire huge part of me, my connection to my labor, was just not present. When I started working from home I got it. Like yeah, I'm still doing mindless corpo shit tasks and I'm completely alienated from the results of my labor, but I at least know how it feels to sit down, work hard, and feel satisfied after.

In the office, I was just coping with too much anxiety, dread, and frustration.
