not just work I noticed this for other things too
It's impossible to speak to anyone on the phone,
a simple answer takes forever
everything is 'urgent'
everything needs a teams or zoom call. even if you are in the same office.
Even trying to arrange a drink with friends seems like you have to check the calendar.
I know this feeling. (Not the scrap of work bit - I actually have to work surprisingly hard to be as lazy as I am). I come into the office every day - did so even through Covid), never early though. I generally do an hour or so at home - answering emails etc – before even thinking about leaving the house
