Done. But looking at the individual settings made me chuckle. Is this supposed to be bad?
Twitter could sure learn a lot from Facebook (and others) about how to be evil. Try harder, guys--you're not even approaching a 2 on the Orwellian scale.
The more capable either avoid observation, or simply ensconce themselves within the existing economic power structure, hiding in plain sight while accruing accolades.
"If someone hasn’t put much thought into their setup and works from their couch 100% of the time, or worse, “doesn’t know yet,” this signals that they might not be ready for a remote position yet."
False. Unfortunately, this (and similarly ignorant snap judgments I've seen and heard) is yet another example of why companies fail at hiring.
I totally agree, because I have had my best remote work done while feeling comfortable in the way I see fit -- sometimes that's going back to a super organized desk and feeling peaceful, other times it's grabbing my laptop as quickly as possible to solve a problem, plopping down on the couch or bed, and not being impeded by having to get anywhere or plug anything in.
The latter does feel unprofessional at times for me only because it reminds me of my technological self outside of work context. But as soon as I make that connection I feel more in control of what i am doing, because my environment is there to back it up that yes, this is the same place where I had late-night hacking sessions and etc, this is where I initially got to know my skills and interest before work was even a factor. I feel because of that, I am able to produce more "genuine" work at times.
I guess everyone is different. Companies definitely should not put desirable remote work styles into 1 box, that's for sure.
Holy frijoles, I was pondering exactly this scenario earlier today while messing around with Caddy and LE, as in: do I want to take a (mostly) static and offline process and directly inject it as another moving part into runtime world, for the sake of its cost, convenience, and overall worthwhileness?
Is there a good alternative, without this sort of process? Or back to the sharks?
