[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like to BS and chit chat being gone is torture for me and I barely get 30-60 minutes work done a day.

In office I get in chit chat 20-40 minutes then get to work till lunch, chit chat at lunch 20-40 minutes get to work then chit chat 10-20 minute around 3 pm while getting coffee.

I had two introverts in my dept whose productivity went way up WFH as i distracted them, the majority of us it fell a lot.

I don’t like WFH as forced on me. Pre WFH 99 percent of company WFH on Friday I went to office 100 percent of time. I talk to guard, lunch people, coffee person, facilities. I was a VP making 500k a year and everyone loved me at clerical level. I rarely bother other VPs or SVPs.

I have been like this my whole life. Even at 18 I had a moving job, I get McDonalds and coffee and chit chat with. I workers first. I normally get to work one hour early to have time for this. [/quote]

Do you think disrupting your colleagues is ok?
What a nightmare .[/quote]

I had a coworker like this.  She would trap and corner people in their offices with incessant, meaningless conversation and then brag that she “worked” longer hours than everyone else.  It truly seemed as though she relied on the workplace for socializing instead of getting work done.  Such a distraction and really hampered others’ productivity.[/quote]

I am the talker. Back in the day I had a huge budget. I literally could pay staff 150k to 300k a year to be in office, my CEO and CFO and mgt team was big in person and did “bed checks” I literally could hire consultants to do work. Some staff oddly thought they could work from home. But literally we were very heavy bonus driven. Face time was worth for me 120k a year on bonus. [/quote]
