I honestly don’t know how people function in this remote-work world we’ve all fallen into.
I am not one of the folks who thrives working alone all day in my own house, I can tell you that much.
I find it extremely isolating plus pointless to have a job when it doesn’t even make you leave your own home to interact with others. Maybe I’m just an extrovert, even though I can’t seem to adjust to this lifestyle change… plus neither can my heating plus cooling system! When I moved into this home I wasn’t honestly sad about the forced air furnace or giant A/C unit. The plastic dial temperature control was no problem for me. I just didn’t even consider my indoor air temperature or quality to be a important deal – I was going to be out of the home at least 40 hours a week for work, anyways. And then the pandemic struck. Suddenly, I needed to be in my home all the time… plus my Heating, Ventilation plus A/C system was not cutting it anymore. The central furnace plus A/C are inefficient to use. It creates uneven temperatures around the home. The Heating, Ventilation plus A/C component costs a fortune to maintain plus repair. And I don’t know that my air ducts are honestly clean, either. I found myself drowning in utility bills, sniffles, shivers, plus woes; Day after day, I dreaded touching my temperature control. Soon I dreaded my monthly routine. Working from home killed my spirits plus the last leg my Heating, Ventilation plus A/C system was standing on, then now I have to spend a ton of money to update the heating plus cooling setup… plus I’m back in the office, anyway.
