Get to work around 7am, have 3 cups of coffee while reading Fox News, take a 45min shite, actually start working around 9:15, and give the young guys flack for showing up at 8:30.

Don't forget a full hour lunch, followed by more coffee.
The actual working hours are spent attempting to understand what the frick they are doing.

Nothing screams 10% more efficient like tacking 1-2 hours of commuting on to your employees work day where they aren’t actually being productive and are having the soul sucked out of them

Covid gave employees power over management. Management is just taking it back. Management always win. Know why? They pay your arse!
Don’t like it? Quit and find another job or go live in a trailer. That’s how life is. Not some utopian world where we all word hard and get along like Star Trek.

God I’m so glad I don’t have his mentality. Working seven days a week. His life is nothing but work. No wonder he’s so mad

This thread is filled with work from home nerds

That’s the problem.. it’s an extremely short sighted and myopic view.. i could understand your point, maybe, if you stated that management always ‘wins’ by paying lower salaries and turning down more applicants or somehting.. but please explain to me how management wins by ordering asses back into office building desk chairs, since any employee worth employing is more productive, by almost every metric, when they are working from home and not bogged down with office politics and water cooler bs .. it was stated by someone else above that it takes disciplined employees to work from home .. why would you want to hire an undisciplined slob ? Explain it to me and and please, for the love of god- Be specific .

None of you get more work done being on tigerdroppings all day either

I’m in favor of office work. Even if you can do the same job from the house which seems to be most people’s argument it just seems long term to be bad for the company. You don’t get inter office cohesion (which also requires not micromanaging every second and letting people socialize) and harder to spot organic opportunities and such.
I dunno, “I can do the same thing from home” might win out for an individual argument but a company isn’t an individual, and on a group scale it just seems way more beneficial to have everyone physically present.

He looks like the type that would be more mad about being called Jimmy Damon (And let everyone know it) than he is about WFH employees.

I prefer being in the office but like having a wfh option when I need it. Wfh is also detrimental to new or younger employees in my experience.

Simply not true and foolish to think so.
You think nobody is slacking on WFH? You think all employees are more efficient and companies just want to prop up real estate values?
This is not a serious argument.

Employees are not perfect. As an employer i have had maybe two truly great employees in 14 years. If i hire a 20 year old to answer the phones, i dont expect that im getting a perfect employee with outstanding discipline. And i need the employee in the office so they can learn how to do their job right, and maybe learn some discipline and other skills from my older employees.

Whether you work in an office or work remotely, you have your good hard-working employees and you have your slackers. The good, hard-working employees will get more done working from home. The slacker will find a way to do the minimum no matter where they are. It’s that simple.

Managers who can’t be “effective”without an office or in office team are not good managers. Plain and simple.
This reeks of trying to squeeze more productivity from a bad system that lets managers not work more.
Managers who are quick to write up an employee to cover their own arse don’t know how to teach and are ineffective leaders.
What’s their excuse?

I’d definitely agree with this. Young people not getting the real training on their industry other than webinars. Not getting the opportunity to network etc. For older established people they already have that, but if you’re just starting out working from home and not being physically present amongst everyone seems like it would be harmful to their career

shite split 3 ways and has doubled in less than a year. I had it before the split. It made me a LOT of money.

There isnt one. Fire them. What a sad attempt this was. The excuses just get worse from the wfh crowd. No wonder Dimon cant stand them

Work from Home & Productivity: Evidence from Personnel & Analytics Data on it Professionals
quote:
Using personnel and analytics data from over 10,000 skilled professionals at a large Asian IT services company, we compare productivity before and during the work from home [WFH] period of the Covid-19 pandemic. Total hours worked increased by roughly 30%, including a rise of 18% in working after normal business hours. Average output did not significantly change. Therefore, productivity fell by about 20%. Time spent on coordination activities and meetings increased, but uninterrupted work hours shrank considerably. Employees also spent less time networking, and received less coaching and 1:1 meetings with supervisors. These findings suggest that communication and coordination costs increased substantially during WFH, and constituted an important source of the decline in productivity. Employees with children living at home increased hours worked more than those without children at home, and suffered a bigger decline in productivity than those without children.
