[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is travel part of the position description? Or are you trying to send people off to stupid conferences to make yourself look important? In the zoom era, most travel isn’t necessary, and of it’s not part of the PD, you shouldn’t be trying to make her do it. Most agency HQ jobs don’t actually require travel - it’s a choice by the management level. You will lose what sounds like a smart employee this way.[/quote]

We work with a lot of communities that don't have high speed internet (rural, indigenous). It's also culturally inappropriate with some of the commuities we work with to meet by Zoom unless needed. We try to minimize costs by using technolgy but honestly we have people who do not have access to high speed internet or other connectivity issues. In some of the cultures we work with, it is really important to meet face-to-face and visit the community. I hope that makes sense? [/quote]

Oh you are sending her to rural, poor communities with poor cell service — does she have a bodyguard? Is she a POC?  I’m a white man and don’t feel super comfortable in WV — it’s much worse post pandemic, poorer with rampant drugs and shrinking police departments. [/quote]
