You realize there are large numbers of people who cannot "go elsewhere and work from another location [they] like".

- ghosterrific 8y agoWhat do you mean "cannot". Are they in prison, North Korea or something like that? Or do you mean that they Choose not to.... or that their paat choices makes it hard to change?
- andrewfromx 8y agoSure but that’s all just conditioning. Just do it. And if you get in trouble show the code you wrote. Repeat. Eventually you’ll be at peace with just walking out the door.
- vonmoltke 8y agoIt is not just conditioning. Some people physically cannot, or have significant barriers to doing so. I would have to give up my two 29" monitors and work over a shitty RDP connection. At my previous two companies I had to be physically at my desk to actually do my job.
- andrewfromx 8y agoAnd I’m saying, yes, I know, I understand, I used to say the exact same lines before I switch to a laptop and just started doing it. Your words read like a man dying to get out of the office but blaming someone else for why you can’t. I’m not saying this to be mean, I’m like trying to talk to my former self and convince him, hey, i can do this!
