Big I think she does describe an interesting and worthwhile concern in that piece re: the contractualization of jobs and unaccounted-for labor, but I also think she should probably shut the hell up.

at the self own of admitting on the op-ed that she asks employees to do around 20 percent of work they weren't hired to do. I'm sure that will go well.

The CEO shouldn't be complaining. She does have a real responsibility to solve this impasse and even if she is employee first (and I don't think she is) there is this impasse. A business must either treat remote employees equal 'fairly' not reward in person employees for the unaccounted labor since remote employees don't have access, or they end up in a situation where in person employees have a benefit because they have access to potential work contributions that remote employees dont. You can try and codify the labor difference there, either with amazon-style bathroom break tracking but based on quantifying productive water cooler talk and small in person tasks that get done much easier without having to be codified and scheduled in an email. But that might end up looking a lot like contract work for the remote employees unless the remote employees find ways to overcome social and convenience divides. If the demographics she ascribes are accurate, they won't--at least not through online (local remote employee get togethers at rented remote offices or coffee shops might actually have huge benefits unseen because everyone is in their house still). I think the way this is going to shake out long term is that a hybrid strategy is going to suffer in work satisfaction and productivity leading to separation of strategies, with in-person focused and remote-focused workplaces. Hybrid models that succeed are going to do so through either having one modeled company contract from the other modeled company or through companies with divisions separated by methodology so the two groups don't compete against one another. That last option will be super risky unless you're large. If a CEO sees this coming, she should probably consider what her business should do about it. She should probably talk to her employees about ways to split the company and these labor requirements fairly and find a method, from the people who will have to execute that method, on how to solve this potentially company ruining distinction. She should put on the table for them the possibility of breaking apart into either separate companies or at least separate divisions and deciding the company's future model based on performance of those divisions, ideally in a fair and equitable method that provides enough time to really test and off ramps for the method that won't fit the model. What shouldn't do is have this conversation publicly around the people whose lives you're actually talking about disrupting instead of involving then in these very difficult life changing concerns.

Now that everyone is working from home, can people stop sending emails or leaving voicemails notifying me of the fact they have 'a question' or 'some questions' and please just ask the questions in the email? Did I miss some weird online etiquette class they're teaching high school students now? Is it rude to share the content of your inquiry before the proper dance of dodging each others calls and scheduling-then-rescheduling a zoom meeting?

Retrowave Joe posted:One aspect of work from home culture I like is people texting to see if it’s a good time to call. Oftentimes I can get by with a no, they’ll reply with an okay and their question, and I can answer it with a text. It saves so much time and unnecessary chitchat. Have you had similar experiences? Yeah, this is great and I definitely appreciate when people do it and I try to do it as much as possible. "Got a minute for a phone call, or should I write a big email?" "Got a minute for a zoom call? I'll schedule something if not."

It's plausible that they're issuing construction equipment instead of arms to their militias, ersatz troops, conscripts and police forces as a desperate arming technique or sadism. But could this be people who's assignment is to hang notices (perhaps evacuation notices) or build barricades? Am I missing some sort of context?

Defenestrategy posted:I want -gate retired with Gaetzgate, it will never be better than that. What about when Irish property management firm Investi is involved in a scandal uncovered by Bill Gates's fiance Natalie Estes? Of course, it was all a setup by Natilie Estes-Gates to to use government investigations lower share price, force the company to dilute shares and create an opportunity for hostile takeover. Then Investi shareholders may initiate an investigation of N. Estes-Gates investments in Investi during the initial investigation of the scandalous Investi investments that prompted Investi-Gate.

boop the snoot posted:The only people I see so far taking advantage of the new cdc guidance are older white dudes. Everyone else seems to be a fan of masks still. For us at work the decision is wait until state, feds, university, and OSHA are all on one page , plus 14 days after vaccination which is what most places are going through as well (maybe minus feds and university, maybe add union). A lot of businesses may not be ready to follow the guidance yet and most people don't want to make a scene in case it is. I think its going to take a while for people to be comfortable in public without masks.
