The part where Jake said 'it's 11 am and I've finished my work for the day, now I'll just sit here for X more hours' killed me. That's me. 😂 And the bland beige walls.💀Funny sketch guys.
it's nearly everyone. You aren't special
@@badabing8152 You're right! ✌️
I am surprised that this is a thing… sounds like some changes need to be made if work is that efficient you get done early… I have always said we need a 4 day work week instead of 5. And by the looks of it we have more than enough hours in the day to accomplish what is needed to be done at work. 😆
it's like being in adult time out.
That was me today... 10am and then just had to look busy so I wasn't given someone else's work!
I’ve worked remote since 2019 and my wife since 2020, and this is without a doubt 100% accurate. Neither of us would ever give up the freedom of being able to do whatever we want when we don’t have actual work to do rather than sitting in an office and pretending to be busy due to overbearing managers. Not to mention no gas spent, and no annoying co workers!
And why do you not have work to last the whole work day?? Sounds like your employer is paying you to sit around… must be a govt job😒.
@@TRUTHseeker-101 I’m in sales. So after proposals are sent, leads have been followed up on, and all deals closed for the day. You have a lot of free time. So it is nice! My wife however has a govt job and she has probably 2-3x the amount of work to do on a daily basis than I do actually.
@@TRUTHseeker-101 don't be jelly of our cushy, better work/life balance jobs. Lol.
Preach!!!
Are you guys hiring?
“Oh, it’s raining today!” Literally I have no idea what the weather is like working from home. 😆
Me every time I go outside "its still summer???"
I have worked remote since 1999. I find I get more done because people don't come over to my office and talk to me and I don't do that to them. Of course, I am batshit crazy now but that is just the price of progress.
🤣
“Still no windows..”
That was the deal breaker for me!
Happily working remote now 🥰❤️✨
Literally turned down a job because they had no windows.
Going from an open plan office to work from home is amazing. I spend time with my hyper energetic cat, on cold days I can work in bed & when I'm feeling lazy I can zone out for hours. I wouldn't trade it for the world. It's an introvert's dream.
This is entirely accurate and is why I left my job working in a corporate office. Finding a remote position has been one of the best things I've ever done for my mental health and productivity.
As a person who has worked in an office and now works from home this is 100% accurate🤣
I just realised that there are actually people who finish all their assigned work within their workday. As a teacher I have not experienced this. It's go, go, go from the moment you walk in until the moment you walk out, and then it repeats when you get home. Weekends are great because you can work without having to teach at the same time.
Same. I work for a tech company in data - I never finish my work for the day and always have more waiting for me in the morning. 🥴
"I don't talk to people I don't want to talk to" It's the best.
Work from home has been a life changer for me. While some team managers / companies are really cool with it, I know others just can't stand thinking about their office buildings sitting empty since they probably can't sell them away easily. Or they're old-fashioned micro-managers that don't trust people to get the work done.
Brad in a video of Brad watching a video of Brad 😵💫
I used to spend around 3 hours/day grinding through traffic to get to and from the office and now that's 15 hours/week of my life I got back with my 20' commute
Very accurate😁 My son has been remote since 2020 and can’t imagine ever going back- His goal was to work for this company after getting his degree but didn’t want to live in California- fast forward to 2020, hired into the company and able to remain living in Michigan- He flies out to CA two to three times a year for corporate team “fun weekends” 😁 my husband and I are very envious😁 Three of our five sons have remained working remotely and love it-
And you get to see them often 😊
Just curious, did he have to take a pay cut based on cost of living? Some companies will - some wont.
Thats the dream! Californian/NY paycheck on middle America cost of living. 🙌very awesome and lucky of your child - an enviable position. ❤️👏
Thats amazing! What company!
@@platinumpineapple9943 she doesnt have to say the company.
I have been remote since March 2020. I treat it like school and jail....I AINT EVER GOING BACK!
That, "Oh, it's raining today 🙂" was spot on. You know it's going to be a good WFH day when it's drizzling out!
I've figured that hybrid works best for me. Being alone at home for too long causes me to be unfocused, being around productive people helps with my own productivity.
Agree that hybrid works best for me. Wherever I spend the most time seems to eventually become the unproductive place. So then I switch gears a little - home more instead of work, or office more than home. For major focused writing tasks, I have also been known to head to the coffee shop, but only occasionally, because otherwise, way too many snacks!
Same here. I live alone, so if I don’t go to the office I can spend days without really talking to anyone. I love the freedom, but TBH at home I tend to drift off or be sucked in domestic work. Like I felt I was doing dishes all day.
This is the way
I can’t stand staying at home alone. I need to have this work feeling to feel productive.
Being alone too long really does make one unfocused. Some weeks I have a hard time doing any real work because I can’t concentrate, no matter what I try
I just started my first corporate job this summer and it's fully remote, and it is soooo 100% true....but you missed the part where you get kind of lonely sometimes just never leaving your house and don't see people anymore lol. I'm an introvert and even this gets to me after a while
I felt the same way during distance learning and I’m an introvert as well
Ditto, as a fellow introvert it was great at first but it does wear on you over time. I'm trying to do more social activities outside the house now to compensate (its a slow journey though lol)
@@jenniferloew5219 oh yah same here...the biggest thing I've noticed is because I never move, I've put on a lot of weight this summer lol so I'm trying to convince myself to run in the mornings if for no other reason than just to get fresh air lol
Hmm, you guys aren't hardcore introverts then. I absolutely love working from home and never get lonely. I get all the socialization I need from watching TV or UA-cam. When COVID started and I heard from my friends that China had been shut down essentially (I lived there up until six months before COVID), I told people in the US that I was jealous of them. Then when it came to the US, I was ecstatic that I had an excuse to never socialize or go anywhere. I definitely am sad and sorry for all the lives that were lost during the pandemic, but I have absolutely loved the guilt-free stay-at-home-with-zero-human-contact for months. Every time the States started easing restrictions, I got sad. I wish we could be in a constant state of lockdown. I know that wouldn't work for most people, but I love it.
@@jenniferloew5219 I’m rooting for you! Just don’t give up!
As a work from homer, all of this is 1,000% accurate. 😂😂😂
Been fully remote for 6 years and this is super accurate. I don't miss the office at all. I love waking up at 7:57, watching Ghostrunners pods and Jean Shorts videos during the day, and not having to commute. Life is good at home!
I’m retired now, but I worked remotely for 3 or 4 years (pre-pandemic) before the company changed their policy (yet again) and made us come back to the office….this video is spot on accurate! There are pluses and minuses to doing either one, but if you are an Introvert (like me), working at home is a huge plus!! Great job, guys! 😀
Self promotion of Mood Swings huh? Genius!
And a cameo by neighbor Henr- I mean coworker Brian?! Brilliant! He should def show up more!!
The office reference 🤣 at the end. I love that show. Creed was the best!!
Boboddy, boboddy. What does the first B stand for?
Started working from home in 2020, love it. I go into the office maybe once a week, and do enjoy seeing my coworkers faces for that time. Love all the natural light and better furniture in my home office instead of the gray and beige walls and cubes at the office... And as a volunteer firefighter, the flexibility is great for when I respond to late night calls.
In my most recent days, I’ve learned that the best part about working remote is that it enables me to grab my hotspot and travel upstate with my mom for her chemotherapy. I can work in the room with her and I don’t have to take time off!!
Edit: thank you for the well wishes everyone!! 💟
I hope your mom is doing well. I'm sure she appreciates you being there.
I am praying for your mom. My sister just had her last round of chemo last month- liver cancer. Praying for you also. 🙏🏿
That is awesome!
🙏🙏🙏 Jesus is a Healer!
@@queentinadoire6931 tell your sister I said congrats 🎊 and I hope and pray for a strong recovery and a cancer-free life!! ❤️
This is BEYOND accurate.
I’ve read about companies whose employees were much productive working from home during the pandemic who insisted those people come back to the office. Why would you do that? Oh, yeah, micromanaging…thinking people are enjoying themselves too much. I mean, seriously, if the work doesn’t absolutely have to been completed between 8 and 5 what does it matter as long as it gets done?
I’m a mental health therapist and I could do all therapy appointments virtually now if I wanted, any hours. I mean, I don’t keep a “normal” 8-5 schedule now. Heck no! I am NOT a morning person. I have appointments between 10 am and 7 pm. It allows more people access to therapy. Win, win.
Went to work for a company in an entry level job with the intention of staying there and moving up. Then I saw all of their “offices” had no windows. Not even on the door! I found somewhere else lol
My husband has worked from home for 75% of our marriage and it’s been great!
I’m glad I’m not the only one that has nothing to do after 11. I just stare at a random email until 4
Working from home is such a pain when you have small children. Sometimes it's loud at the office with people talking, but no one comes into my cube when I'm on a call with a customer and starts whining and crying about something Mommy said. And no one asks me to take the trash out or empty the diaper pale or watch the kids while they take an alarmingly long shower
The alarmingly long shower hahaha. Yes.
UUuuGGhh LiFe Is So AnNoYINg WhEn I HavE To GeT A TAsTE oF AcTiVE ParEnTInG
@@e.t.2914 I think what you meant to say was "it's so annoying when I'm trying to earn money to feed my family and I can't because that very family is bombarding me with inane and unreasonable requests"
You are an internet rando. You have no idea what kind of father I am
I work from home and my husband cares for our 4 kids 7 years-old and younger. Everything you describe is why I love working from home... I can help my spouse when they need extra time to shower. I can comfort my kids when they're sad. We take walks together in the middle of the day and eat all of our meals together. I saw my youngest baby's first steps! My kids know my teammates names and say hello when I'm on calls. My life feels fully integrated and I absolutely love it!
~Don't think I didn't notice you deleting your replies and editing your og comment to same less sassy~
But good for you, I'm proud you at least realized you were being doofy and have enough humility to be embarrassed.
Thank you for the consistency of the timing you release your videos. I love knowing I will have something from Jean Shorts to make me smile every Tues & Thurs at 9am! 👏🏻
You guys put out solidly good content. You're both naturally funny! 😂😂
Agreed wholesome content eh?
Remote work is the best. Works well for me. Got rid of our other car, so only down to one car. Bought a house far away from the city, otherwise we were priced out of the market. Flexibility is awesome. I don't see myself going back into the office full-time unless it's more than double my pay with better benefits and high bonuses, which I highly doubt would ever happen. You guys nailed it though, and loved the BOBODY at the end. Creed Bratton!
As a wfh wife and mom this is 1000% accurate!!
Touching the mouse to make sure your computer doesn’t show you away is 100% accurate
"I don't talk to people I don't wanna talk to...." This touches my soul.... ✊️✊️😂😂
Neighbor Henry never fails to show up in the cubicle at exactly 4:57pm when it's time to leave. Talking about pear trees or his wife Ginger or something
This was like inception watching this video while I’m working from home and living the same life as work at home brad! 🤣🤘🏻 Love working remote and not having to commute! 🙋🏻♀️
I love how he just noticed that it was raining after it'd probably been for hours. That is so relateble to just about anyone I've known who are behind a screen for long hours at a time
I’m working from home now. I probably spend 3-4 hours actually working and the rest doing whatever the hell I want lol. This video is so relatable lol.
The impression of neighbor Henry was awesome! I also loved the golf channel being thrown in there.
Yes!!
Yeah, I’m never going back to the office. I do work out of Panera bread or Starbucks sometimes because I do need some “publicsy”. 😂
Watching this video as I lay in my bed “working” from home
Saaaame!! 🤣
A little bit of a sidestep from traditional "work from home" but as a parent to 3 tiny people all day, managing the house, finances, cooking, schedules, cleaning, etc. this is a much better set-up for my personality than when I ever had to attend school, college or my office job and oftentimes just sit there rearranging the company tea boxes--again. My husband, however, needs the accountability of being in the work environment. Different folks!
You forgot the after-lunch nap part...
Ummmm about that. 🤣🤣🤣 I'm currently in bed, winding down and about to take a nap. It's 1:45pm. 😂🙌🏻
Watching this while working from home…As a FT working mom with 3 kids I think you need to do a Girls Gone Mild version of this.
Been working from home for almost 3 years now. Its fabulous. Got so much time to catch up on youtube now 😂. Kidding, but there are perks to it. Mostly just love the fact that I don't need so much gas anymore.
This is too good & so accurate! I've wfh off and on since 2016 and it's not all it's cracked up to be. Sometimes the office isn't so bad, at least that way you can leave your work at work.
'I haven't left the house in 73 hours."
Both a blessing and a curse lol.
HOWLED AT THE LAYING DOWN changing POSITIONS 😂😂😂
I loved the coffee descriptions... topsoil or stale cigarettes! LOL
So true! I work part remote and part in person and when I’m
Home I wake up and start working in my
Pjs 🤪
Oh Brad all day! That's like 90 percent of post 2020ers. Depending what you actually do, it could be stressful WFH for so many years or it could be great. I enjoy both but honestly prefer the office to get away from the monotony and actually SEE the outside world.. 😁
I’m working remote now and this is spot on!! Freaking hilarious! I mute everyone and just do my work during the “conference “ calls 😂 We now go in maybe every 4-8 weeks for a meeting, and I despise when I see people and have to talk to them. Smh I blame the pandemic, becuz I use to be friendly 😩
I’ve worked remotely for almost 4 years and although I do get lonely sometimes I still love it! But, I draw the line at not showering every day. 😂
Wicked funny!!
I work as a server and in an adult store so I couldn't work from home.
A lot of my family has switched to home based working.
BRO I ABSOLUTELY LOVED BRAD DOING THE HENRY VOICE 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🥲
When Brad gets to that coffee shop people are gonna see a cool guy with a laptop
Office work sucks.
The place I’m at now, 2 days a week in office mandatory. Those are the 2 days I accomplish nothing. I wonder why being shoved into a small cube with people talking all around me, people bothering me, getting called to meetings to talk about things a message would do…
Versus being in my nice home office with a huge comfy chair, where I can focus and concentrate on my time.
I'm one of the lucky ones...NOT I'm stuck there 5 days a week, while most of the others just come in one day
@@glamgal28 Why? Is there an element to your job where you have to be physically present?
@@billbored8277 All the others mostly support only one program but because I have had experience with all the programs they want me in the office. But I think I'm wearing management down, I figure sooner or later they will get tired of me complaining😅
with that said I still am blessed to have a good job to get dressed for 🥰
I started WFH in March 2022 & this is SO accurate! I don't get to do whatever I want during the day lol but I can use my lunch for whatever I want
I work hybrid and this is so true. When I'm home; I'm done with my work in one hour. Thank God that I use a pseudo name; I wouldn't want my boss to know. 🤣🤣
I really hope my next job can be remote. Sounds so wonderful.
I feel the same, I'm a bit envious. I'm the office guy right now; I get 10 days of vacation, not 8, but I also don't get flex hours so I can't even come in early if I need to leave before 5 some days. It stinks sometimes because my friends are always traveling and I can't go. 🥲
The plugs for the UA-cam channels were seamless
You forgot the wake up in bed for a conference call meeting and accidentally fall asleep during it, and it's you and a few other of your coworkers that did the same thing.
I have worked from home for at least 5 years now and it does have its ups and downs but I would not trade it for anything because as an introvert I enjoy working from home
This video is spot on! 😂
You can’t beat working in shorts and a t-shirt! And the recliner is pretty comfy as well! 😀👍
Yelling about "inside voices" is the most realistic thing ever! 😂
I’m self employed and I don’t think I could ever work for another person again. Really well done boys!!
Watched this three times in a row so funny! And accurate! I love the 30 min dumps for each lol
I will never go back to the office. Remote for life 😂
I work remote and everyone has the option to go to the office. It’s so nice! I love working from home but it’s also nice to go in 1-2 times a week to hang out with my coworkers.
The 27 hour vacation explanation was funny!
We had hybrid in 2020. Used breaks / lunches to get stuff done. It was great! Our team is a corporate help desk. We are so transparent any manager can see exactly what we're doing and monitor us live our whole shift. In the years I've worked there, there's never been a one on one or team meeting outside our annual review. But we had to come back to the office 5 days a week. 🙄🙄🙄
Love love love my 8 to 5 job and getting out of the house and socializing. I live down the street and I have an office something I don’t have at home.
Totally agree
I had no choice about working at home for 6 months. I was so much happier leaving the house to go to work each day. I also lived close by!
I'm literally watching this while working from home. I've been done working 3hrs after I logged on. Also, I ALWAYS tell people, "If there's wifi, I can go." lmao!!
Mowing the lawn and yelling at me kids... yup, accurate.
The people talking to you about super random stuff… do not miss that! Thankfully I did have a window!
So do we all work from bed except when we are on video calls and just no one admits it or talks about it? 😂
Been working from home since March 2020. I’m tethered to a headset, but this is very accurate.
I'm a stay-at-home mom...haven't had a job outside the home for a decade, and cannot relate in the slightest to the office job world, but I laughed!
I loved the line about Tuscan Room . I live in Michigan and the office my company had that was
ear the lakeshore used lighthouse names for all of their conference rooms.
I love your videos and this one is really funny and you guys always find a way to make things funnier
‘No we don’t work on Friday’s’ 😂😉
The dear finally had her fawn 🤣
I used to have a 5 mile commute. It took me 45 minutes. Seriously. I DON’T miss that, at all.
I do hybrid work from home 2 days and in office 3 days and I relate to all of this!
I can relate to the noise thing on the child side. My dad would sometimes work from home and my sibling and I had to be veeerryyy quiet on those days or we'd get in trouble. One time we were playing Wii and it had to be muted since it was in the same room as his office. It was the most awkward gaming ever
"Public-cy" lol Seriously, I WFH and have on and off my entire career. I def. prefer WFH and I have literally worked from the Pyramids of Giza. Only problem is when you still have to work 40 hours and you take midday breaks, it often means working super late but still being required to log in at 9 a.m. the next day. But every job has issues and WFH issues are absolutely way better than in-office.
Yesssss love this one because it’s all real!!
Lumbar? I learned that when I started working here..😭
I had my first corp. Job at a tech place in a prefabbed warehouse. Now I work remote in a design co.
This is ENTIRELY accurate on both sides
1:35 to 1:45 SPOTON
I've very rarely needed more than half the day to actually get work done and then have to pretend to be working the other half.
My husband has worked from home for 14 years. The flexibility has always been amazing. We’ve lived in several different states and had many adventures. He is one of the most motivated people I’ve ever met and is very professional. I’m proud of how hard he works for us.❤️
My sister works from home and she discovered the favorite mating spot for the squirrels 🤣
Love the Henry-- I mean *Brian* character. 😂
Brian….”what kind of trees do you have in your yahd?” 🤣🤣🤣
One day I was feeding my toddler lunch and it was during the time my husband was working from home. He stormed in the kitchen. Grouchyly Grabbed 10 Oreos and then went back to his office. I didn’t even ask 🤣.
Lol, the iPhone alarm, my dog always barks, irritatingly helpful for not hitting snooze in the morning, but I had to rewind the video & tell him, “It’s ok.”
Brad! “Mood Swings Golf!” Hilarious! I hope that scene generates new subscribers❣️❣️❣️
nailed it with the WFH scenario. its exactly me 🤣
Loved the little neighbor Henry tree talk in there.
