>Why does everyone here just assume that everyone’s commute is as bad as theirs?

Because statistically it would be representative.

Also because even if the office is next door, you need to get dressed properly, prepare, etc., which eats at least half hour every morning.

I just hope you shover despite working from home.

WFH I can shower whenever I want, not necessarily in the morning -- as would be the case when I have a morning commute.

And another key benefit is that, even for those who don't shower, nobody else is hurt...

You should get dressed properly and prepare even if you're working from home.

Our CISO made a deal with us that we'd wear collared shirts when we need to be on a video call but are free to wear whatever we want otherwise. I keep a polo shirt with the company logo in the closet of my home office for those occasions. Works well. Sometimes I wait until lunch to shower but if I have a video call in the morning, I'll be sure to shower so my hair looks presentable.

Where do you work that they care if your shirt has a collar?
