You realize “writing code on a computer” is just the opposite of “getting outside”? Getting outside for me is getting outside.
My wife is out of town this weekend at a conference. I woke up, fixed breakfast, went outside and swam a few laps in the pool enjoying this 80 degree weather (the joys of living in Florida), hung out at the bar downstairs, came back upstairs and took a shower and I am heading back downstairs to hang out at one of the other bars downstairs and just shoot the shit with the bartender who is a friend of mine and whoever else shows up while drinking soda (I go down to hang out not always to drink) and listening to bad kaorake.
When my wife comes back tomorrow, we will hang out during the day and go back downstairs to the bar tomorrow to watch the Super Bowl.
We have 8 vacations planned this year not including 5-6 trips to fly up to our home town in Atlanta (where we lived all of our adult lives until two years ago) for things going on in our friends lives and to fly to my child hood home to see my parents and family.
Not bragging, most of our vacations aren’t anything exotic or expensive and I play the credit card point/sign up bonus/churnimg game to offset some of the costs.
My focuses on how to add business value was what allowed me to find strategic consulting jobs where most jobs are still fully remote.
You must have realized that by, “going outside,” the parent meant “doing something that makes you happy,” and not necessarily literally being outdoors. They find joy writing code. You realized that, and still chose to demean them with this reply.
