I think something that is missing in the minds of the "but you could just..." posters here is that the mindset of the OP doesn't always come from laziness, immaturity, or the inability to understand how to pack a sandwich, it sometimes comes from crippling or barely functional depression.
I work from home and the thought of even making a sandwich most days in the middle of the day is just too much. I don't want to make a sandwich; I want to go back to bed for eight to ten years and I agree that lunch is the fucking worst.
(But so is breakfast, and dinner, and all of the meetings, and work, and life generally speaking, etc.)
This is precisely why always working from home is unhealthy and the context switch would be worth the psychological boost it provides if not for the commute. I know people really liked the liberation of WFH at first but I just don't think it is going to be sustainable. It has nothing to do with productivity, but it's the next simmering mental health crisis.
I like how the "why don't you just" people have now moved on to armchair psychology.
For sure but here on Lemmy it seems to be the case in like 80% of posts. If that many people were actually depressed across the whole population, civilization would long have collapsed.
So you're saying a niche platform with a lot of tech guys who are actively facing layoffs daily nowadays isn't representative of society overall? I'm super surprised.
But relatedly depression levels have risen across society over the years, it's gonna impact the posting.
Then you are just burnout, this ain't complicated. If you need to rest, fucking rest.
Oh wow! My crippling depression is cured! Why didn't I think of this before? Thank you so much!
