So it's not just me! This is a question I've been asking myself since starting to work from home. However much we hated the cancelled trains, wet walk to the station or traffic jams, our commute did create a healthy separation between our work and our personal lives.
For managers, the increase in work hours more than offset the loss in commuting time: Their work day increased on average by 56 minutes, and the time they spent replying to emails increased by 13 minutes. These changes were even larger for managers employed by large firms, who spent 22 minutes more per day in meetings, and 16 more minutes responding to emails.
