    First ill preface that I know i am REALLY spoiled to even have a wfh job. Im honestly amazed something like this exists.

    Which leads me to my question. Im good at my job, its a great company, I get nothing but good feedback. But honestly, its easy. Really if anyone wanted to learn, they could do it. I feel guilty pretty much everyday at how easy it is. But the fact that its easy also makes it really difficult to put in 45 hours of real work. I try to use some of the time for educational videos or something related to work but honestly with my adhd mind, 9 hours is a lot unless im SUPER busy.

    All my previous work has been jobs running around all day, fixing problems, managing people, which I dont want to go back to necessarily but sometimes I miss it. I work very well in chaos.

    I have tried meds to zoink me out and they do work, but I prefer not to be dependent.

      Cultural differences apply, but I have more or less solved it by adhering to regular office hours, here at home. People know when they can reach me, so they are happy (during lunch break and after the office hours they cannot).
