Cross Country WFH

I’m starting my analyst career the day after Labor Day. I live in NY at home and my jobs office is in San Francisco. I do not see us going into the office for at least a few months and am excited to save up a bunch of rent money and have very little expenses at home. However, will the 3 hour time difference be miserable? I assume i will be starting every day around noon (EST) and finishing up at the earliest 10 pm and on some bad days almost 4-5 am. Does anyone do this right now? Is this going to really suck in a few months when the adrenaline from starting a new job has worn off?

I totally get that the hours will suck regardless I’m just curious if anyone who starts 3 hours later and presumably ends 3 hours later hates it or likes it.
