The Work Thread..

Ultimately, hybrid is probably the best approach. I think there is something to the fact that many humans need the interaction, and even the ones who CAN do their jobs remotely should put time in the office, even if it's for the benefit of the others. Being part of the team and interacting with the team can be part of the job description.

Not sure I agree with Elon that it's immoral for me to do a job remotely while someone else has a job that can't be done remotely. Go get a degree or experience in a field that can be done remotely if that's what you want.

My job can be done from home so I say fuck the office.

I love being at home most of the time and there's nothing like clocking out for work and going straight to the couch or the gym or whatever else you want to do -- all of it is better than spending 60 min commuting or whatever else.

I completely agree and I would work from home if I could. But there are these delusional people out there that think work from home is the only way to go. Which is fine, you do you, but when that same person is complaining that they have been unemployed for a long time and struggling financially.

That’s why I went to college at 38. I was tired of working 50-80 hours a week as a manager and still not getting appreciated or paid accordingly.

The real deal is that people can't handle their shit.

To me, "I need to work from home" comment means you cannot separate work from home.
 
And in a related story, my current GM is getting promoted, so now I have to deal with losing a work partner that was perhaps my only intellectual equal I have met serving in the role of my direct superior.

Now I have access to see who may get her role, but I am not involved in the interview process.

I can see who is applying. And I see it is a manager that has been "groomed" in the corporate developmental program.

She's fucking 31 years old. A mere child.

And the problem is, based on her Workday profile pic, she looks kind of hot.

Thing is, she is a complete local to the Corporate stomping grounds. Complete Arky.

I would prefer that our AGM who I work well with gets it, but I have a bad feeling I am going to have to deal with a brainless plant that some dork from Home Office is associated with.

I guess that is a very sexist and disgusting thing to say, but I don't care.

I see no rack in the profile pic.

I can only assume from her gaunt face that she doesn't sport much of a pair.

My old boss had bought ones, which were nice.

It depends on if it is an actual merit based hire or done for optics.
