    It’s funny that the unions think this is a violation of their rights.

    Reagan had a solution for these people.

    Still pretty crazy that the people who process your taxes or passports can work from home half the time.

    But people who WFH face less distractions and are more efficient, right?

    I would guess most government employees working at home work about as much as I do on vacation.

    Need rigorous performance measurement. Then lowest 10% get laid off, highest 30% get a bonus not tied to seniority.

    Even the best solitaire and minesweeper players need to leave their house for the in person tournaments.

    This is almost exactly how my company operates. It's really effective at eliminating underachievers.

    It's also demanding and overly competitive, but you can't have it both ways.

    Who gives a fuck?

    Seriously.

    If the only reason you need to show up at work is for some paper pusher to "see you working", then you should definitely work from home.

    MAGA = My Ass Got Arrested.

    Beware the passive aggressive Mean Girls. Vengie, Killramos, Penismightier, buster, jrscoolude, etc who bully others into their circle jerk opinion, serially negging you, while claiming they ignore you and don't obsess over you.

    PSA. High school is not a popularity contest little girls

    Ironically, we could probably hit our climate targets if WFH was widely encouraged. Taxes are a much better alternative.

    I know there's a lot of arguments about the pros and cons of WFH but people that WFH the most in our office are all the ones that were well known slackers before the whole COVID and WFH thing. I wonder why that is?

    I find it funny the people who moved to the burbs or Cochrane or some nonsense during Covid and are now salty they need to go to work.

    Did they think the pandemic was going to last forever?

    Good luck with your job search in Cochrane.

    I am one of the people who actually get way more quality work done from home than from the office just from not being distracted by the people. I also put in way more hours overall than ever, but I certainly am not naive enough to think that is the case all around for everyone. It takes a certain personality type to be able to pull it off effectively I think.
