After that I was hoping to see "There's more to life than this. I'm wasting the time I've got left on pointless numbers."
The majority of people I would benefit most from being in person with aren't in the same country as me.
Your productivity is conected to your bosses way to lead. I wfh and my time is not measured in hours but in tasks. I have taks and deadlines. That's it, one person will do a task in 20 min another in an hour. So if you go by task it's more productive and I can choose what time I want to do it. Ifyou count the hours the person is working they can just say "oh that wasn't enough we had problems". I think it's dumb
I worked in the stupid open office space these assholes designed for years. It. Sucked. Distractions everywhere. I couldn't focus on anything. Now I get double the work done in half the time and I don't have a pain in the ass commute. The hubris of assuming what works for you will work for everyone is astounding.
Thank you sooo much for your very presence. We are sooo grateful for your wisdom...
Go fuck yourself with a rusty railroad spike.
Linked in is a cancer.
HR people are truly the great parasites of our time.
Ah yes, the mental health crisis is solved at the coffee corner with help from your coworkers.
As a naturally introverted person, working remotely has vastly improved my social life, well-being, and productivity.
I used to burn all my social energy at the office, and when nights and weekends came around, I’d go into hermit mode to recover. Work drained me. Now I’m sitting on my social charger all day while I’m working, and I actually have the energy to see my friends after work and have much better balance in my life.
I’m fortunate to work for a company that let everyone decide what works best for them when RTO mandates started going around, and they get better work from me because of it. This CEO can get fucked.
As a naturally ambiverted person I like that WFH lets me attend social events right after work
if you cant be responsible if not being supervised, dont tell everyone about it
What an idiot. Yet another example of failing upwards.
Well, if you work hard, sleepless nights and have family connections, you can also be that idiot.
overpaid CEOs are a scam
Just more proof most CEO's are damaged mentally.
People can have friends outside of work.
I'd rather spend my time where I'm most comfortable and with people I'm most comfortable with.
No remote working option in my current job though
