What I wouldn't give to see you try just to survive a day with my body and my brain.
The base level struggle of someone living in a world designed for people with completely different brains than ours would make whatever trophies you think you earned in actual competitive Little League or whatever look exactly like the worthless little ego strokes you think participation trophies are.
But we can compete with you, now that we can work remotely. If you can't compete remotely, that's because you've been relying on privileges you didn't even realize you had for your success, not because there's something wrong with remote work.
If you can't succeed now that we're on the field, you don't deserve any more trophies.
- EricE 5y agoOh please - I'm severely ADD and was before it was even a thing. I still managed to learn to adapt without expecting everyone around me to bend to me. And I'm not only full time WFH but geographically remote from my office too. Have been for some time. But wouldn't be anywhere near where I am to day had I started out that way. There is nothing wrong with remote work. What's wrong is pretending there aren't trade off's with remote work. if those trade off's aren't majority negative for you then have at it! But assuming remote work should just be the norm just because it's what an employee wants - that's nuts!
