You can do the same thing in a remote environment. Schedule a meeting in the morning of the next day as people are logging onto work. Or schedule stuff for after lunch before people get back into focus mode. All of this stuff can be done with proper scheduling rather than just grabbing people as they go and assuming that it's not interrupting their work.

of course. The whole point of OP and that I was responding to is that an organization needs to make a decision. Are you a 100% remote organization or are you a predominately in-office with occasional WFH type allowance. WFH isn't a new thing. Long before the pandemic we had plenty of people who would WFH every Friday or when they had a contractor or a delivery they needed to be home for. Or when they had one part of the project they wanted extra focus on. An organization should have the balls to say "fuck it, we're 100% remote work" then let employees figure out how that would work for everyone and hoe to organize their meetings and work schedule for everyone. Or they should equally have the same amount of balls to say "we're 100% work from office with the occasional exceptions like we did before and you should figure it out". I've been wanting a commitment to one of the approaches from management for a long time. I'd also like some form of commitment from other companies when I'm applying for jobs. I have no interest in working in a "hybrid" team. You're either 100% remote or you're not. Just tell me which you are and let me pick.

How on earth do you know when a remote worker takes lunch?
