Work and non-work is difficult to distinguish anymore. Since I have only one laptop, weekdays are tiring and demanding, feels like I'm always on call. It's beginning to feel more and more like a house arrest now.
Perhaps it's the right time to take a holiday soon. NG (Philly) is taking a day of this week just because of all the work things. You'd think if everyone was working from home all the time, in a 'chill' manner, they wouldn't need any more time to 'spend' at home and here we are. At least with 'onsite' job, you know when you're working and when you're not, when you're having fun and when you're not, when you're the master of your own time and when you're not. Even if you don't work onsite, you can go to a cafe or a library or a coworking space to create a distinction between home and work. In this situation, the extraordinary circumstances we find ourselves in, it's unclear.
Everyone's been saying the same thing. The passage of time feels weird, some things seem to have sped up while others seem to have slowed down. Days seem to have melded into one another, days and night into one, no one can tell what day of the week it is or what the date is. Because nothing matters anymore. You can't leave your home. Yesterday was as today is as will tomorrow all days are the same and why do you even need to care about all those things. Time is illusory, nothing will happen really just sit in your house survive and do all the work you can do. Like, what other options do you have, it's not like you have anywhere to go to anyone to meet anything fun to do really and if you do, it all involves your laptop, might as well work on the side because why not.
And therefore, holidays are needed.
