I've never had a priviledge to work from home. I heard from my friend it is very difficult to WFH.

In view of total lockdown that will be implemented this tuesday, I wonder whether it is really productive to work from home.

Funny you might ask.
I joined my current company last year during MCO in April.
Have been WFH since then.
I've only met my boss less than 5 times.

Most Malaysians, you know I know la. Say "working", just show up as online on Slack or Microsoft Teams or whatever caveman era IM tool work uses, then other tablet/computer scrolling FB/Twitter/YouTube. Naisuuuu

EDIT: Remember to move your mouse every 5 mins or use auto clicker so your IM tool doesn't go idle/offline

stressed honestly.. work never end even after 6 or weekends
atleast in office after 6 can forget everything and continue the next day

wad job you do?

banking

yup... can have been working from home for > 15 months now.. i don't like working from home though but basically not much difference in term off productivity.. i chill whenever i can cause the moment crunch time comes most likely have to work 60 days straight without proper weekend breaks.. i still have datelines to meet.

just imagine your roomate amoi also WFH, half way you kerja, she ask you help her take video for her onlyfans extra income

you can focus ?

Was great before kids. Harder now.

You already WFH what, every day spamming your anjeng kerajaan shit

For backend, no issue with WFH.

Example.
Reviewing invoices, purchase order, etc, approve or reject.
Insufficient support document, use work phone to contact requester and email them.
The only problem is offline document submission by requester.
Although the online system had been implemented 8 years ago and it is quite convenient and easy to use, I have no idea why many requesters still submit paper forms.
So, still have to go office to collect, scan those forms into system, then back at home and continue to work until 5 pm.


For frontline, there is no chance of WFH.

Never got the opportunity to work from home.

My job is on the operation side. I need to move around in my workplace to check here and there.

Last time I work in 100% office environment, but end up I quit because I feel so bored to be honest working in full office environment.

End up I find a job that mixed with both environments. Office and outside office.

Been WFH since MCO 1.0, the only complaint from me if I’m in a meeting and my 3 years old son knocking on my wfh room door nonstop

Apart from that, no issue for me

bolehland WFH is not work hours TBH.

in bolehland tukey eyes, WFH = 24 x 7 work.

MCO 1.0 ; WFH until around June, then office rotation during RMCO (flexible, can go back to WFH whenever)
CMCO in Oct; WFH
MCO 3.0; all WFH
Lockdown; all WFH

No issues with WFH, company has profits, can sustain >12 months even if no income

Yes, can. Legal related job, with proper planning maybe can wfh half a month.

I think the best is 9 to 10am have a video call with boss, to check on daily task (work alone abit depressing one).

clock out at 7-9pm.

Wfh since last year march ... u say leh.

Damn hard especially if wife have to go to office as part of essential service. Meanwhile got a team to run, and 2 toddler, and lots of meeting. Stop sending to daycare and kindergarten.

Luckily i can rely on my team, but working hours really screw up as i need to continue work at night after kids sudah sleep.

Can but if whole Malaysia company closed. You cannot do anything.

Programmers literally increased productivity when WFH.
