Commuting to an office can be incredibly frustrating. That’s 10 hours a week taken away from productivity, sleep, family time, and life in general. I’m really grateful I earned my CPA to enhance my competitiveness for remote positions like the one I just landed, and to eventually start my own firm. The traditional office environment is just not for me.
The freedom I have now is amazing. I no longer have to deal with distractions like Bob peeking over my cubicle or Janice interrupting my lunch with comments or questions about my food.
I prefer to focus on my work for 8-12 hours a day, close my laptop at the end, and if you’re genuinely interested in connecting—rather than just using me to procrastinate—I’m all for hanging out on weekends!

It sounds like you’ve found a great opportunity to reclaim your time and focus on what really matters to you! The shift to remote work has definitely been a game-changer for many—eliminating those daily commutes and distractions can really enhance productivity and overall quality of life. It’s awesome that you’re not just stopping at remote work; you’re working towards launching your own firm too! Best of luck grinding through those hours and making meaningful connections outside of work when you want to. Keep pushing forward!
