Let's be honest, one of the best pros of working from home is being able to use your own toilets all day long (discuss.tchncs.de)

I can only imagine. Can you image working in construction? No break room. Nowhere to sit for lunch. Eight porta potties for two hundred workers, sitting in the direct sun on a code red day. Dude that cleans them is puking.

When I got higher up, and got access to an entire building, I'd find an empty floor and use those bathrooms. Pure luxury.

Having worked construction, there are plenty of places to sit for lunch if you don't mind improvising or you drive to work. Porta-johns are definitely nightmarish tho. On the last job I worked, someone (we still aren't sure who) missed the hole with a puddle of straight diarrhea, rendering one of the only two toilets on the entire job virtually unusable.
