Forced office work already polarizes opinions. Many of us already say Work From Office is the devil.
Why does my typing on a keyboard in the office bring more "value" than when I type on a keyboard at home?
- nathanaldensr 7y agoFor the same reason why managers and executives love PowerPoint slides and UI mockups: they can see it. I completely agree with you.
- yoz-y 7y agoForced anything will polarize opinions. It largely depends on personalities and how you have your personal life arranged. After over a month of WFH I can't wait until this thing is over. Personally I feel best when both are the option but the office set in a way that it does not drive people out.
- jasonpeacock 7y agoYes, I'm hoping that the outcome of all this is a more open "work where you want" policy, with support for people to choose what they want.
- autokad 7y ago> "Why does my typing on a keyboard in the office bring more "value" than when I type on a keyboard at home?" the same reason why you sometimes have to call someone or talk with them in person instead of typing them a text.
- loco5niner 6y ago> sometimes Correct. Sometimes. And sometimes its better to text. See how not having the option to choose is limiting?
- autokad 6y agonotice how I said sometimes and didn't speak in absolutes?
- loco5niner 6y agoIt sounds like your comment defends "Forced office work" (which is an absolute), and many companies absolutely don't allow for "sometimes" WFH.
