I know plenty of people who go into offices and blatantly don't work.
- baq 3y agoI guess the point is to not work only one job at a time
- Spivak 3y agoYeah being in office doesn't make it any less difficult to scroll through Reddit.
- otabdeveloper4 3y agoYes it does. Working in the office necessarily forces you to structure your work in time and space.
- Spivak 3y agoYou do know you're just parroting RTO thought leadership propaganda, right? The phrasing of structuring your work "in time and space" is rather unique and comes most recently from business thinkfluencers trying sell RTO as "new paradigm at the workplace." The real point underpinning the CEO ball fondling is strategies for creating structure for people that need it originally assembled for students working async and remote. Moving between spaces can create structure, putting on a "uniform" creates structure, having blocks of time planned out ahead creates structure, having small incremental goals creates structure, having blocks of work with regular check-ins (cards/standup) creates structure. Like it's just your standard ADHD time/focus management but pretending that these two specific things are best for everyone.
- otabdeveloper4 3y agoSorry, I've never read a "business thinkfluencer" in my life. Wouldn't even know where to find one. The undeniable fact is that people want "work from home" because they have serious issues following schedules and making plans. (Of course working from home only sweeps the problem under the carpet and creates bigger problems down the road.) Yes, these cats need to be herded. They can't self-organize. Also, the methods of herding cats are well-known since time immemorial, just ask any kindergarten teacher. P.S. You, of course, are a Cool Cat and different from all the other cats. Don't need to reply.

- bitcharmer 3y agoCongratulations, this is the most confidently incorrect set of statements I've read on the internet this week. I pity people who'd have to work under you. Sheesh.
- CyberDildonics 3y agoThis person has recently said that "solar panels are an ecological disaster", that "breathing is detrimental to health" because "oxygen is toxic and literal poison" and that "world war 3 started in 2010" so this is actually pretty tame in relative terms.
- Kiro 3y agoIt definitely does. The only thing that can prevent me from slacking off is knowing my screen is visible to other people.
- radiator 3y agoIn your office, don't you have any desks where your back is covered?
- thepasswordis 3y agoIn fact, they spent a lot of their time on ~~slash dot~~ ~~Reddit~~ hacker news!
- sdwr 3y ago:o those lazy slackers
- cajuncosier 3y agoYeah... CEOs. Most of them don't work.
- fellowniusmonk 3y agoC-Suite is a cost center. Only a small portion of established companies (not startups) have executives that make a clear revenue difference. First thing AI should replace is most of the C-Suite.
- DiggyJohnson 3y agoThis is unhelpful and low-effort and not in alignment with out guidelines. There's almost never a reason to submit a one line snark comment.
- DiggyJohnson 3y agoIt's obviously an issue of ratio and degree. You're just saying anything that comes to mind to support your position instead of recognizing any nuance.
