I think you are totally right about the self motivation part. I’d wonder though is it just that people who aren’t motivated are easier to see in a remote work setting vs the office as you judge people by their tangible outputs alone. In the office setting this is obscured but the same cohort aren’t actually doing anything more or less.
- papito 5y agoI can be as unproductive at work as I can be at home, but coasting in the office is so exhausting, I'd rather do work.
- ohazi 5y agoI can even recall a handful of times when I was trying to solve a fiddly problem, and couldn't concentrate because our (open floor plan) office was a zoo. I would tell my boss I needed some quiet, would go home, would sit down and solve the problem, and would come back the next day feeling much less frustrated.
- papito 5y agoI should have done that more often. Open floor, combined with Slack and over-communication made me 4x less productive.
