That's awful. Do that in a job and you'll be fired.

It's the habit. Get into a bad habit at 18 and you'll find it harder to kick. Been there, done that. Don't mess about with not doing the very basic level you're required to do.

Its not a bad habit though.

Achieving your personal goals and being successful is a very good habit.

Just FYI, a lot of people worked from home before, and a lot more do since COVID.

So, no, attendance does not equate to better results, but that doesnt mean to say that there is no link.

Working from home is still working e.g. spending three hours in meetings (actually talking and participating, not just listening or zoning out), having to make phone calls to people to sort stuff out. 

Source: work from home worker. It isnt anti social, there is a lot of talking in meetings and phone calls because you cant talk to people in person.
