You need a minimum of 4x5 workspace and a full size mattress is about 5.5 x 6 a twin closer to 3x6.

Even an apartment bedroom 10x12 can accommodate both in an L. Gig internet is also a lot cheaper than commuting or we work. If you are a professional there is little excuse not to have a desk and fast Internet at home.

Doing tech support I was always shocked to see some folks including techies angry that their elcheapo Internet plan with 10 year old rented equipment downstairs wasn't working well for their hyper important job.

Invest in yourself a bit.

Jesus Christ, here’s my excuse: Before the pandemic I didn’t work at home. After the pandemic, I work at WeWork.

WeWork is $150 a month btw and includes free coffee and A/C in the summer (my apartment doesn’t have A/C) as well. Plus I can walk there in 30 minutes so the dollar-cost of commuting isn’t an issue.

You realize picking a nearby office of your choosing is nothing like coming into the office right. You selected it for proximity to obviate 99% of the downsides of the office and if you don't like the situation you can pick up and change it without changing jobs.

It’s actually further than where my office used to be pre-pandemic. I’d have a similar bike/walk commute to probably 70% of the office jobs in my city.

I hate remote work but I happen to like my current job enough to stick with it despite it being remote. My next job will be in-office.
