@vfrmedia @vees TBH, I don't deny the need for some folks to go into an office.

  • Regardless if it's the receptionist having to deal with incoming (signed/tracked/courier) mail and packages, or business meetings or whatever else.

  • And OFC some folks can't really work well at home due to distractions, shitty internet, noise, small kids that don't understand this is work and not gaming, etc.

BUT these folks too benefit from those who can #WorkFromHome to have the option, by having less #traffic during #RushHour, a less stressful commute, less packed/smaller office with less density and thus better work climate.

  • Personally I find the lack of noise-cancelling and bacground commotion from #CallCenters way more distracting when it comes to #CallQuality but that's because it takes up more mental labour to focus on a single voice...

Sadly few offices do give people decent headsets and employ even the most basic acoustic foam to reduce literal crosstalk noise...

@vees Almost as if they care about their business model being at risk since 2020 taught almost all business what was known in the early 1980s

In fact #commuting is just #UnpaidLabour!

🐾 At OpenProject, we believe in flexible work — but it has its challenges. Like when your colleague sits on your keyboard and refuses to move.

Yes, we work remotely. Yes, many of us have cats. No, we don’t always get the last word in meetings.

😺 Happy #InternationalCatDay from the #OpenProject team!

Victorians' right to work from home will be protected by law as part of plan from Premier Jacinta Allan

I hope this proposed change to workers' rights and employment regulations goes ahead. Enshrining the right to work from home would be excellent for work-life balance, such as family time spent together, and reducing the pollution and time-waste of commuting to work. It would also help to prevent some abusive managers from attempting that bait-and-switch where they hire people for remote work and then issue a "return to office" order.

A fear of going to prison for falsifying federal documents didn’t prevent an Arizona woman from using her home as a “laptop farm” for North Korean hackers. @ArsTechnica has more on the scheme that landed the woman a 102-month sentence. Plus, how "remote work" scams have become increasingly common over the last few years.
