[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is the head of your company someone who hates their family (but has a stay at home spouse and lots of help) and/or someone having an affair? I used to work for a guy who hated his familt so always arranged these things to get away. [/quote] This has been my experience also. People pushing for an excessive # of offsites (and monthy or biweekly has to be excessive by just about any definition) generally fall into at least one of the following categories: 1) They are miserable at home 2) They don't actually do any work, and they hide this by always being on travel. (these people find some other reason to travel for work on the non-offsite weeks). I knew someone who was a prime example of point 2. Never actually did anything, but always seemed very busy, with out-of-office messages about delayed response to messages. Then internal travel was suspended to control costs, and it became clear just how little this person actually worked. [/quote]
