[quote=Anonymous]1. Why do you care what other people do? If you’re just jealous, then get the stones to do what they’re doing, Jeanie. If you’re earnestly shilling for corporate America, the GDP, and the integrity of work in the United States, you’re an absolute sucker. Sell crazy somewhere else.

2. Why should anyone care where work is being done? If I get my stuff on time and it’s well done, I don’t care if you wrote the memo from the North Pole. As it happens my associates are crap so this never happens, but it’s got nothing to do with WFH.

3. American white collar productivity has gone up astronomically for 50 years and time spent working has only increased. WFH is a very natural and predictable swinging back of the pendulum. I’m a lawyer. The partners I worked for early in my career (2000s) spent their careers GOING TO THE GD LIBRARY AND SEARCHING BOOKS for information. They wrote memos with typewriters. Their analysis was often based on one or two cases or interpretive letters they were able to find in a government agency reading room after weeks of research. They were absolute trash. A good lawyer now can slice and dice the entire universe of information and precedent in seconds; work from forms and templates to prepare very good work product in a tiny fraction of why those old sh$tty memos required. At some point these massive efficiencies should allow people to spend more time with their kids or go exercise or take a nap when they feel like it. I’m glad we’ve reclaimed some tiny sliver of sanity. [/quote]
