How many request do you get from employees everytime it rains or gets cold asking if they can work from home using some lazy, bs excuse?


I work for a living. No such thing as work from home in my line of work. If you ask me, work from home should be discouraged by any company interested in having productive workers.

Not every situation is the same, not every company needs an office.

I'm mostly in office, but I get more done when I'm at home because I don't have 100 people asking me dumbass shite all day long.

I feel bad for these little work from homers that don’t realize that robots are gonna take their jobs in like 6 months

Kinda sad that they don’t have a skill that’s too hard for robots to learn like welding.

Ive worked from home for right at 20 years. I have a routine and seem to stay on top of everything. I miss an office quite a bit, it can feel isolating at times, but I think my productivity is much higher out of the house. I am social, dont give me a reason to drink a cup of coffee!

Okay, but lets say a person working from home can be just as or more productive at home than at work. You still don't think people should have that option?

The office can be a lot more distracting. At home you don't have people stopping by then end up talking long enough to distract you from what you were doing.

All that should matter is that employees do the job they were hired to do. If they work better from home then good for them.

There used to be an instrumental engineer who worked at the same place I did. He said he did his best work at night. He would go into work at 2AM so he could work without anyone around. He would sent and respond to emails within the 2AM hour, get his work done and then be able to be at work from 7AM - 10AM to communicate with anyone he needed to, etc...

He also loved strip clubs so if he had to go in the field he would always ask one of the younger guys in his department to go and he would take them to the closest strip club to where ever they went (he often had to go somewhere in Mississippi right across the state line and there was some strip club in Mississippi he would always go to).

Anyway, each situation is different and whats the point of being in the office just for the sake of being there if the job can be done out of office? If the work isn't getting done that's one thing, but if I do my job and do a good job at it, don't worry about where I do it.
