[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone who things zoom meetings are actual work are idiots.

When remote I worked with Jira, Slack, Google Docs, roadmaps, KPIs, Epics etc. we rarely  used phone or email for work and we rarely had zoom type meetings.

Every few months hop on a plane or train to meet up with people IRL.

My old company one dept just rolled out In Person Remote work. It is a hit.

His In Person Remote work is all new hires live right by office or commit to staying by office Tues and Wed night. They work from home Monday and Friday and in person “remote” Tuesday through Thursday. No one os commuting.

He buys breakfast every day, buys lunch everyday and does happy hour every Wed.

I love in DC and in person remote is in Manhattan I would have jumped on it. My MIL lives near office and I can stay for free. They try to bang out all with those three days with 10-11 hours in office than Monday and Friday are goof off days and a little work [/quote]

Sounds like plenty of goofing off on the in person days with breakfast, lunch, and happy hour.

I personally think employees should be strapped into their desks with a seatbelt that can only be unlocked with a code from their supervisor. 5 minutes for bathroom breaks and 15 minutes for meals. After that time an alert will signal and GPS will be used to locate the errant employee. After 3 such incidences, employee is pipped and fired. Cell phone and wifi reception blockers will be placed throughout the building to prevent personal phone and internet use. [/quote]
