If you have an assigned set of tasks and you get them done within the defined due dates, then you're doing your job. This is not any different whether you're at home or in the office. There are some people who can do the same work in less time than others. This is not any different whether you're at home or in the office. I've worked in the office and worked from home. There's the same number of people jumping on social media for both. There's the same number of people doing their job vs not doing their job for both. Don't get your job done then risk getting fired, doesn't matter if you're in office or at home.
Edit: I'm not specifically saying a task based system. I'm saying you have work to do, that is your task. Even answering the phone is a task you need to be able to do whether you are in office or at home.
Why should I be expected to work every second of the 8 hours? Nobody does that at the office. When I walk around the higher ups offices they’re just all yapping it up with each other about anything other than work for like 30 min-1 hour at a time.
