When I was forced to work eight hours a day in a busy office, I was uncomfortable and stressed out.
There was constant noise and talking, and I was allowed to listen to music to drown it all out. My employers claimed that listening to music would contribute to mistakes, but the tasks typically amounted to mindless paperwork. On top of that, management enjoyed interrupting us throughout our shifts to make sure we were staying on task. There’s nothing worse than having your attention and focus broken because a supervisor assumes you’re not actually working. You start to loathe your job so much that you don’t care about the quality of the work you’re submitting. When I had the opportunity of a lifetime to start a remote job where I could work from home, I didn’t realize right away how much it would transform my life for the better. I could listen to music to my heart’s content as long as it wasn’t too distracting, and I could also use small amounts of cannabis throughout the day to keep my mind relaxed and at ease. If you stick to sativa strains, you can stay focused and have your anxiety and depression soothed without getting too tired and mentally incapacitated. Since I tend to struggle with anxiety while I work, using a sativa strain can often increase my working speed and my productivity. I am much less likely to take random breaks throughout my shift if I can consume a quality sativa strain in measured doses from the beginning until the end of my work shift each day.
