Do you allow for the possibility that you, as someone who prefers loud and busy offices and feels more productive in such, might have a blind spot in how you "measure" coworkers?
- xeromal 5y agoIn the same way most people on reddit and hackernews preach working completely from home. It's a spectrum and everyone needs a different approach. I think the hybrid approach fits everyone with minimal disruption to each person's preferences.
- ghaff 5y agoWell, it doesn't suit the preferences of someone who wants "their team" back in the office most days. And it may also not suit the remotee whose team decides that if they're not back in the office just screw them. But ultimately people who can do so will just have to find situations that work for them.
- smugglerFlynn 5y ago> it may also not suit the remotee whose team decides that if they're not back in the office just screw them that does not sound like a ‘team’ at all
- ghaff 5y agoI didn't say it was a fully functional team but if a group of people decide that the person who refuses to come into the office is more trouble than they're worth, it's at least somewhat understandable from their perspective.

- nostrebored 5y agoI measure coworkers on deliverables lol
- papandada 5y agoAnd what are those deliverables?
- nostrebored 5y agoProjects, sales, blog posts, narratives, etc. you know, deliverables for our jobs. Not every field is as nebulous as dev.
- papandada 5y agothanks for clarifying, I was indeed assuming you were a software developer speaking about software development. Obviously, the nature of the work, even within a given field, is a huge factor in the suitability of remote/in-person work.
