There's definitely a category of people who 1.) Are more or less available during work hours, 2.) Do a good job of what they say they will do on or before the deadline because they work quickly and efficiently and 3.) Don't work a full day to the degree they probably would sort of have to in an office.
- whatshisface 4y agoHaha, people do not have to work a full day in the office. Source: thirty years of archived Dilbert cartoons?
- away271828 4y agoNo. But there's generally a difference between what people can get off with at home and what they can routinely get off with in an office.
- whatshisface 4y agoDoes the company really care about whether they are vacuuming their floor or browsing hacker news?
- Swizec 4y agoVacuuming is more restorative than hacker news. Gives your brain a break and gets you off the computer
- Jensson 4y agoAt home people probably play games or watch netflix instead of just browsing forums, I don't see people do that a lot at work, and I can see that reducing productivity more than just browsing forums.

- acheron 4y agoI always think of a Dilbert from the mid 90s along the lines of “when working from home, do I owe the company 8 hours of productive work, or just the same 2 hours of productive work I’d do if I were in the office?” (Found it : https://dilbert.com/strip/1995-02-06 https://dilbert.com/strip/1995-02-06 )
- WWLink 4y agoin theory, the same 2 hours - but you need to be available the whole 8 hours as if you were sitting in the office.
