I went in the office for a few days and it just made me realize why i don’t miss it. Couldn’t get any damn work done.

Lonely co workers talked my head off. First time I ever met you and you telling me why your marriage failed, how your son bring home slutty girlfriends and you won’t give a blessing to marry, how you’re back out here looking but ain’t no good men your age, how you had to get knee surgery during the pandemic, how your sister lost custody of her kids for being on drugs and it goes on and on.

Yo… I just said nice to finally meet you in person.

But that's the onboarding I am referring to.
That's the onboarding process that they need to create, and yes it may very well be on a per department level, yes ideally yes.
If companies created a process they may have even better outcomes and ramping up new employees even faster and better than being onsite.
They just need to create that process.
I agree completely

Bro that's great but you could do all that via a virtual meeting too.
You are just not used to the idea, you are capable of imagining walking into a different department and just sparking a conversation with someone with a specific task to learn from them, but you have a hard time visualizing doing it remotely, only because that's not how it was always.
I hear u but there's certain jobs that are obviously onsite like Manufacturing, Engineering, QC etc which can only do so much remotely

Bro it's the opposite, office chairs be spinining once the clock hits 5 O'clock!!!
It's proven that employees don't look at the clock while remote as much as they did while onsite.
Everyone has a bus to catch, or they want to run out before traffic congestion, or they have a kid to pick up and again worried of traffic, and so many other reasons.
But if you in the comfort of your home there's no chair that will be spinning.
Oh I know I'm one of them lol. But leadership usually stays later to deal with bigger fish to fry.
Employees know how to do the job. Employers know why they're doing the job.

This impression that you have is based on current onsite practices being executed while remote.

We just need to get over this cultural change and adapt to it.
Everyone's impression and studies being done are all based on onsite processes but for the remote.
We need a new culture and processes specifically catered for the remote worker.
We just need to realize that, do it, and then form our impressions.
And studies should be based on processes for the remote worker, not antiquated onsite processes but for the remote worker.

I agree but it's gonna be a while before we get there. There's too much money and stakeholders involved to fully make it a reality.

How does it suck?

If it sucks then you haven't found a way to work with it, the weakness is in you not the remote work.

exactly.

2 fukkin years in and if you haven’t found a way to:

- have your work boiled down to a science
- work in bed
- watch TV/listen to music while working
- eat while working
- have bytches come thru and smash
- be outside and still do a google hangout with the mic/camera off
- do laundry/errands while working
- use your phone as a hot spot while in an Uber
- take 0 vacation days but still take mini trips and work
- fukk a bytch with the company laptop on the bed nearby
- dip out for an hour and go workout and comeback and no one notices a thing
- use the Wi-Fi at TGIFridays during your niece’s birthday party
- expense a recliner instead of buying a desk

THEN YOU LAWST!!!!!

I get an hour for lunch but have never had time to take a full lunch break. Ever.

They require us to take at least 30mins on our time sheet. So i basically give them 30 free mins every day bc i don't have timr to take that break. :francis:

But I won't complain since I get to work from home.

An extra half hour throws off your work day? Like do you have to get all your work done in the same day?

I generally don't take a lunch break period, loll. Like maybe 10-15 mins at max. And yea, there's certain things that have to be done by the end of the day, every day

Ya there's alot of those.
I once met a co-worker I only talked on the phone maybe 8 times in meetings, in a group setting.
Then I met him in person and he was telling me how he's going out with this girl, but she has too many guy friends and that he thinks her friends are trying to get into her pants but he really likes her so he doesn't want to risk telling her to stop talking to them.

People like that are weird man, especially if they are from the west coast, like he was.

This comes down to people wanting other people in the office because they hate being around their own families and they thrive off having other people around to annoy and suck into their vortex of neediness

Tell these companies rent a much cheaper collaborative workspace or rent conference rooms on demand if they feel the need to pow wow in person....

I bet many of those managers will conveniently find ways to skip those meetings.........they will be out getting fukked by the office secretary or the former-jock sales rep.
