    • You are more important than the company, put you and your family first.

    • If your company doesn’t provide a pension plan you have no reason to be loyal and stay.

    • Telework is an excuse for minimal working. Most remote workers schedule emails, get their work done quickly than spend the work day doing personal work on the clock.

    • Charisma is more important than performance for career progression.

    • Favorite employees are typically the easiest to be manipulated and taken advantage of.

      How is doing your work quickly in remote working an excuse for minimal working? If the work is done, where’s the issue?

        From an employer’s perspective, they are wasting their money if you work less than the work day. Most employees waste their workdays in the office, stretching out work. One of the reasons why telework is failing is because, after three years, employers finally figured out that their employees are not working the whole day. From their point of view, that means you are unproductive because you could be doing even more and can handle a much larger workload. Employees obviously don’t want them to know that.

          So the solution is to get them back to the office so they are forced to spend more time either being slowed down by their environment or pretending to work like before? I don’t understand the point. Employees are not going to magically transpose 2h of efficient remote work into 8h of efficient office work. The point of view is irational.

      telework gives human beings their agency back. nobody, NOBODY needs to spend 8 hours straight doing emails

        That is one of the benefits, minimal working. If you can get all your work done in half the work day, good for you.

      That’s the biggest load of bs I’ve ever read. I work just as hard as my colleagues in the office and I don’t clock out after half a day.
