Unpopular opinion: Switching between home and office setups ruins my shortcut muscle memory.
Since my team went hybrid, I'm constantly on different computers. How do you keep your key commands consistent without wasting time?

Seriously, this is the worst! I keep typing the wrong shortcuts on my different machines. It makes me so slow some days.

Ugh that's the worst feeling... like your brain just short-circuits. Which ones keep tripping you up the most? For me it's always copy and paste... I'll hit ctrl-v on a Mac and nothing happens, or command-c on a PC. Drives me nuts. I wonder if it's mostly a Mac vs PC thing for you too.

After house-sitting for my sister, I kept reaching for light switches in the wrong spots for days... That same muscle memory fail happens with keyboard shortcuts, especially between Mac and Windows. @stella_shah89, it's like our brains get stuck on one operating system... I read that it takes about three weeks to rewire those habits, but constant switching just makes it harder.
