[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look all of you super workers from home. Sure, you are doing it great and it might be sustainable for you.
But, it is unlikely sustainable for the majority and even if it was, people in charge want you to go into office.
You have an option, quit or show up at work in person. At the office.
Your whining here shows that you are not a team player and hence you might be let go. Life is hard and not catered to what you want.
Unfortuanly many of this younger generation didn't get the memo about, suck it up!
All this whining here proves it.
You still think if you whine enough, mom/boss will let you have 1K prom dress.
Well, think again.
Your mom and your boss might be sick of your whining and trying to get your way.
Even if you are that productive from home![/quote]

Why do I get the feeling this was written from the back room of a dry cleaner in Annandale?[/quote]
Because you are that stupid?
You only have one vision of people who might disagree with you? And you are not that smart as your only answer is to "insult" the poster? A sign of a not smart person is to lash out.
You are lashing out bcs you know I am right. That hurts and you don't really have a valid counterargument so you resort to alleged insults.
A person working at a dry cleaner, and in the back room, knows hard work. I admire that person so much more than you whining here.
That person knows how to work long hours and they show up every single day! The fact that you insulted and think poorly of that person is a reflection on you. A truly bad reflection on you, that you are so clueless to broadcast in public!
In fact, you have given me a compliment comparing me to such a hard working person.
Thank you.[/quote]

Why are you so bothered that many people are capable of successfully working from home?  Is it because your own job (or personality) doesn’t lend itself to working from home, so you are incapable of believe if that other jobs or personalities can do it well?[/quote]
I am perfectly fine working from home, being in academia. The simple fact is that many people do not work great from home, imo. Why do I say that? Bcs people work terrible from office or work! Many, many millions don't show up, show up late, don't do the work. These are simple things that most people my age know. We have worked with people that are self driven, and those are far and few. Majority can barely do work when they show up.
I am bothered by pps here who think that bcs they are good at working from home, they are entitled to work from home.
For many, with understanding bosses and work environment that is a great option.
Yet, that is not how work force functions. If a boss has 10 people and 2 work great from home. and 8 barely do anything, that boss/company is unlikely to allow two of you to work from home. Their priority is overall productivity.
My issue is with people saying "I want." That is so tiresome and immature. What YOU want is rarely what you get in real life.
In pampered UMC, maybe.[/quote]
