Working from home may sound like the perfect setup, but not everyone enjoys it. While many people appreciate the flexibility, others feel it makes it difficult to maintain a healthy balance between work and personal life. One woman has now shared why she would rather work from the office.
In a light-hearted Instagram video, she spoke about the everyday struggles of remote work, saying it often leaves her working longer hours with little time for herself.
She Shares Her WFH Struggles
The video was posted on Instagram by Honey Singh with the text, “work from home reality.”
Describing her daily routine, she said, “Work from home… there’s no going anywhere. Whenever you feel like it, you think, ‘Ah, kid, you have to work even more in work from home!’ As soon as you get up, you just sit down with your laptop. In the chaos of meetings, there’s no fixed time to eat.”
She said that once work begins, even simple daily tasks get pushed aside because meetings and deadlines take over the day. “Even the time to bathe only comes in the evening. Working while lying down in weird postures has given me a permanent backache. Still, nobody takes my work seriously, man!” she added.
Comparing remote work with office life, Honey said going to the office gives people a proper routine, regular breaks and a chance to spend time with colleagues.
“Better than this is going to the office—taking breaks every little while, a one-hour lunch break is going on, gossiping with friends and coming back. As soon as time’s up, the laptop is shut. Here, the bed itself has become the office!” she said.
Many People Relate To Her Experience
The video struck a chord with many viewers, who said they had gone through similar experiences while working from home.
One user wrote, “Yes I agree with you.” Another commented, “This is very true.” A third person said, “Haha I can relate with you,” while another added, “100% true.”
One comment read, “Sooooo relatable yaar.” Another user wrote, “sahi kah ri behan.” Sharing a similar problem, one person said, “Mujhe to backpain bhi hona start hogai hay.” Another commented, “Peeth mein permanent dard hits hard to me.”
