For me, a 100% remote job was great at first but quickly became torture and lead to some really unhealthy habits (more snacking, increased alcohol intake, staying up late and sleeping until 7:55 etc.) - but everyone is different and perhaps someone who is more of an introvert would do better than I did with this.

> more snacking

There are free snacks at the office while remote I'd have to buy my own, so less snacking for me. Same goes for the alcohol, I can't participate in office parties, if I'm not at the office.

> sleeping until 7:55

That's an unhealthy habit? I usually wake up at 8:30

It is when you start work at 8:00.

Oh, I see. Yeah I could definitely see myself waking up 5 minutes before a meeting if I worked remotely, which would be a bit unhealthy.
