First of all I have to come into the office and stay there for 8 hours a day -which is normal- but then I have to login to another computer via remote desktop and work on that environment, even though I have a perfectly functional computer right in front of me.
Things wouldn't be so bad if the remote server wouldn't be a few thousand kilometers away and the lag weren't so noticeable that it induced regular urges to go take a nap and took away most of the desire to write any kind of code.
I think most of you agree that anything less than instant response when you type a word or scroll a page is practically torture when done for 8 hours a day. I would have never imagined that it would be possible to have better working conditions at home than at work, but nevertheless here I am, living the horror.
One of the things I've learned from this experience is that I still tremendously enjoy programming stuff at home and that when I have a good working environment I can become more productive by orders of magnitude.
