One good thing is that there's no office politics.
But the main bad thing: I'm alone ALL of the time! Which, in general, is nice 75% of the time, but then the other 25% of the time is kinda rough. There's only so much that TV and movies and music can give you. I miss talking to real people!
I don't at all miss the idiotic "office politics," but in the old days, it was nice to go out to lunch with people, to chat with people, to go out to drink with people after work.
It would be nice if I had a work group that would like to go out for a drink and chat every now and then. I don't have that at all. But then I didn't have it either at my previous in-house job from 2014 thru 2019....
Come to think of it: Back when I was an undergrad at UT-Austin, I would go out every week to drink and talk poetry with fellow students. And that's what I wished for when I went to grad school in San Francisco---that didn't happen at all. No one went out after class to talk and drink. I'd always thought San Francisco was supposed to be so cool for artists...
