[quote=Anonymous]I know someone that works at the Patent Office who teleworks the majority of the time as well. I think they said it was something due to space but sounds like it applies to a majority of the people they work with. They were in the news not too long ago. I think it was something along the lines how they didn't work the hours they were supposed to for the majority of the month but close to the closing period would rush to finish the amount of things they were supposed to meet the goals. Not sure if this is the right article but it's along the same lines: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/federal-eye/wp/2015/07/31/patent-office-stresses-quantity-over-quality-new-review-of-troubled-telework-program-finds/ Or might actually be this one, which was linked in the above article: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/federal-eye/wp/2015/04/14/the-u-s-patent-and-trademark-office-doesnt-know-if-patent-examiners-are-doing-their-jobs-watchdog-says/ (the people that I asked about this said it's just a few that does this but gives the rest a bad rap)[/quote]
