On the contrary, I am not. Beats commuting to work in summer heat heat and traffic. I hope it lifts when the monsoon arrives. XD

While I too absolutely hate long transit time to office, I miss not having to cook for myself or having the chance to meet someone.

I think community spread will start from today, as lockdown relaxations are given.
it might if some sharabi is infected as at many places people have forgotten social distancing as shown in news and news sites. i must mention that queue outside 3 shops which i passed while going to get some grocery were completely disciplined, people were standing in hot sun at a distance of 1 meter or more. on the other hand, inside the grocery shops and medical shops, most of the people jostled and every single of them was a senior citizen. shopkeepers and their men kept telling everyone not to do so still it continued. all of them looked like degree holders (don't feel like saying literate).

What about thousands of people the states are sending to their respective towns in trains? Are they going to maintain distancing there?
All the other major countries have flattened the curve.

How far do you people live from office ? @Desmond David @SaiyanGoku
When I took apartment, my max radius was 7km away from office.

~16 kms for me. Fortunately I have to take the highway, so there's not much traffic for most of the commute. But as I get close the traffic gets worse. Area is work in is an IT hub, so morning traffic jams are common because of all the commuters.
I had actually switched jobs but I chose to stay at my current apartment. I used to be only about 5 mins commute to my previous workplace.

3 KM previously but I used to walk to office. I have switched job recently and current flat is about 40 KM away from new office. Would need to search for a place near it after lock down ends and WFH limits are exhausted (till 31 July as per govt.).

40 km sounds impossible to do, how did u travel before lockdown ? Bike ?

Haven't needed to travel yet. Remote onboarding and WFH options have helped greatly. Funny I was hoping to get a 2 wheeler 1-2 months after finding and shifting to a new place but the latter might not happen if lock down keeps getting extended.

I think most people will end up working more in terms of raw hours when they work from home.

^ You are really bad at WFH. I sleep more and work less
India crossed 50K+ cases. Not slowing down.

OP
Personally, its not for the reasons mentioned in the articles, but the sleep thing is happening to most of the country:
Work from home is making 67% Indians suffer from sleep deprivation, says study
It's funny and fitting that a mattress making company came up with the report
And, people are listening to indie and k-pop because of the lockdown, bollywood listening has gone down, its kind of bizarre

That's behind a paywall, but here is a site that tracks listens on streaming services

we are also having similar issues here, due to wfh availability, we are being compelled to work from 9-10am upto midnight or past midnight these days, almost uninterrupted. lunch time, bath time private life, week ends, everything got messed up.^ You are really bad at WFH.

But that means your supervisors too must be working for same hours or is it some type of automatic monitoring system to make you work.

automatic monitoring is not there, but problem with this mnc is that, there are too many managers associated, and since hey cant directly see people, each want their kind of reports and stuff. and not all workers are enabled with wfh either, so those who are enabled, are going through extra pressure.
+ they are calling mailing anytime and demanding response, because people are all in home and presumably they have no other work to do.

Time to start looking for another job then.
Thing I don't like at all. Unless all those reports really result in something productive(which I seriously doubt), they are just a waste of time.
