I have no idea how many hours my employees work -- I just know they get the work done.
I wish someone would just tattoo this on the forehead of every PHB (backwards, of course).
- jrockway 17y agoMost people's jobs aren't to do work, it's to keep their chair warm. That requires 8 hours a day of work.
- staunch 17y agoThe basic idea behind office hours is that if you can't make people work, you can at least prevent them from having fun. If employees have to be in the building a certain number of hours a day, and are forbidden to do non-work things while there, then they must be working. In theory. In practice they spend a lot of their time in a no-man's land, where they're neither working nor having fun. http://www.paulgraham.com/opensource.html http://www.paulgraham.com/opensource.html "Workplaces"
