Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I left a job of eight years for a WFH job. I lasted 15 months and they worked my ass off. 11 and 12 hour days for weeks on end and still unable to keep up. I left and took a 49% pay cut. I'm selling shit on ebay to pay the bills and no longer WFH, but I'm back to 40 hours a week.
I feel like there could be a middleground found here ๐
I sure as hell tried. Management ultimately failed several of us.
If management are demanding that you do work beyond the agreed upon hours that's a management problem you'd have exactly the same issue if you're in the office.
If you want to work from home, don't let this experience dishearten you most of the time it isn't like that.
Thanks for the sound advice. I'd like to try WFH again if I'm able.
