This is a must-watch champions league. Choose your team first and read on…

Preface

Have you noticed the exact color of your house walls, yet? Did you discover a rat hole somewhere in the deep pits of your kitchen? Did you get a chance to look at your electricity bills after eons (~3–5 years)?

Yes? (come on, we heard you) or No?

Either way, we welcome you to the WFO vs WFH champions league!!

Many of you might think that whether it’s work from home or office, work remains the same! Yes, it does but the place does matter.

Whether or not you’ve spotted rat holes in your kitchen, we have tried to nail the major difference between the 2 — WFO & WFH. But, if you still haven’t selected your team then please do so and defend it hard (by adding +1 to your respective team)!

Let’s begin…

WFO vs WFH (Round 1)

A] (This is not a posture test)

Revolving office chair (that creaks at times) or the comfort of your couch and pet cuddles?

B] The sound of your colleagues while you’re trying to focus on work or singing your favorite song out loud (so no more just bathroom singing)?

C] Cutting through the crowded metros or getting that one hour of extra sleep?

Reminder: Don’t forget to add +1 to your team of choice.

D] Carrying 3–4–5 boxes of home-cooked food or binging on chips in-between calls?

E] (this one’s epic!)

The constant quarrel over AC temperatures amidst an important meeting or setting your own room temperature?

Both WFO and WFH have their own advantages and disadvantages. But, the struggle is real! Round 2 is happening soon. Stay tuned!

We won’t say WFH is a cakewalk. But be responsible. Be home. Be safe. Right now the real champions league is between us and Covid-19. Choose your side wisely!
