Desk Commute

Commuting from your bed to your desk in the morning.

Popularized with the “work from home” movement post-Covid.

Instead of commuting in your car on a long trip to work, you now must instead commute from the comfort of your sleep to your computer desk.

Employee 2: She probably overslept and never made the desk commute
