I doubt there are many people in tech with bad Internet. Worst case, there's Starlink.
All other issues are easily solvable too, either with the right tools, or the right processes.
(nb. I also think working at a coffee shop isn't for most people)
- anotherhue 2y agoEasily solvable? Tell that to the screaming toddlers.
- -mlv 2y agoCreche or another parent.
- lnenad 2y ago> All other issues are easily solvable too, either with the right tools, or the right processes. By coming back to the office?

- lnenad 2y ago> Desk, chair, lightning, monitors are easily googlable, too. All those things are part of the office and you don't have to pay for them. > Coming back to office creates more problems than it solves. Other than commute which could be a bitch in the US what other problems for the company do they create? Yes hanging out at home is nice for you/me, you can rest, nap, be with your kids, do chores, but how would this matter to the company when people abuse these situations on a regular basis?
- surgical_fire 2y ago> All those things are part of the office and you don't have to pay for them. I gladly paid for them so I don't have to commute. Since going remote I could move to the countryside too. Bigger house, nicer environment, cheaper. My home office setup follows me if I switch jobs. > Yes hanging out at home is nice for you/me, you can rest, nap, be with your kids, do chores, but how would this matter to the company when people abuse these situations on a regular basis? If you don't have the discipline to work when you are supposed to, that's a you problem.
- lnenad 2y ago> If you don't have the discipline to work when you are supposed to, that's a you problem. Actually it's a company problem, that is precisely why this is one of the main reasons they are doing it and why it actually makes sense.
- surgical_fire 2y agoPeople always slacked off in the office. Probably a lot more than at home.
- lnenad 2y ago> Probably a lot more than at home. Statement based on pretty much nothing.
- surgical_fire 2y agoBased on experience. I worked in the office for many years.
- EasyMark 2y agoIf they abuse them then their productivity plummets and they get fired.
- consteval 2y agoSeems rather heavy-handed. I think you can, like, get better Zoom meeting without traveling 10 hours a week and using Zoom at a different computer.
