But you know what? I still meet deadlines, my job is still secure and you can suck my fat D if you think Im ever going back to the office full time.

You know why? Because I make the same amount of money doing WAY less work and having WAY more time for myself.
If deadlines/targets are being hit I don't see the problem.

Does the person working from home offer value or not? That’s all that matters.

Sorry boyo, some dude who speaks broken english and doesn't understand basic math may be able to replace you, but folks like me are bigly insulated from that. That's probably why I keep making more and more money despite working in my jammies for half the day.

Sorry Elon.

I like some of your other sayings, but this one ain't it.

I'll never go back to the office.

Changed to 100% fully remote a little bit ago.

I'd average maybe 10 - 15 at the absolute most hours of work a week since then.

I'll pause the NBA playoffs and put my drink on the coaster and reply to an email here and there. Just f'kin LOL if you think I'm going to ever go back to an office and try to look busy for 25 hours a week.

You aren't paying me to be at the computer from 9-5. You're paying me to do a job.

That job gets done, so stfu.

I can't wait until the entire generation of herp derp be in the office dies away, seriously. You're not elite. You're a clown.

I'm an all or nothing kind of guy so hybrid doesn't work for me. Before covid I had the option to work from home two days per week and never took it, I preferred working in an empty office with everyone else at home.

Not too concerned with lower paid replacing job either. I've worked with plenty of East European and Indian workers and they are a mixed bag with technical work but usually weak on the communication side.

Main issues I see are AI and VR. Once VR improves bosses will be saying you can WFH but need to sit in a virtual cubicle along with all the other peons. A few years away from that so in the meantime just working towards financial independence.

A study by Standford of 16,000 workers over 9 months found that working from home increase productivity by 13%. This increase in performance was due to more calls per minute attributed to a quieter more convenient working environment and working more minutes per shift because of fewer breaks and sick days.

In this same study workers also reported improved work satisfaction, and attrition rates were cut by 50%.

Working Remotely Can Increase Productivity up to 77%
77% of those who work remotely at least a few times per month show increased productivity, with 30% doing more work in less time and 24% doing more work in the same period of time according to a survey by ConnectSolutions.

This stuff is a problem. On the one hand it is much more efficient for the individual to WFH, OTOH commercial real estate and all the little businesses that exist to serve commuters are getting creamed.

I've always been able to efficiently streamline my work to get it done faster than required and all it led to was punishment by being given more bullchit work just because 'if you have time to lean you have time to clean' mentality middle managers without any additional compensation. As a result I'd just purposefully do everything slower to stretch it out over the day. That's all time wasted that I could have been using for my own self-care at home.

Everybody knows that most people in an 8 hour day are productive for like 3-5 hours maximum. If the work is getting done there is literally 0 point keeping people around for another 3 hours just because you're an extrovert who can't handle not having people to talk to during that day.

I agree on the stupidity of being paid to be present rather than being paid to be productive. Doesn't make sense for non-customer facing roles where physical availability matters.

I could see us moving more from an employment system and more towards a contract system- meaning you could be contracted to complete tasks within a time frame instead of paid by the hour and required to put in X days.

You know he sells cars right?




IMO if there was an authentic concern for the environment and conservation there would be a shift to paying employees a per shift fee for commuting if commuting is required + a percentage bump for peak traffic times in big metro areas.

How much less concrete would have to be poured into roads if commuting was greatly reduced and if those who are commuting were not doing so all at roughly the same time each day?

But none of it is about the environment or climate, it's about control and milking the plebs of every last dime.

Why worship someone who is in bed with the people that pushed COVIDmania on everyone, who pushed Trannymania on everyone, who hired someone to run his company that is also in bed with the same people.

The fact that people can easily be woo'ed by Elon despite the obvious shows how easily people can be controlled and manipulated.

Maybe we'll never escape clown world because there aren't enough self aware people out there to resist it.

The irony is that he's doing tesla to help tackle car emissions and the boring company to help reduce traffic congestion whilst he hates WFH which is one of the easiest solutions to tackle both fuel emissions and traffic because a significant portion of drivers will no longer have to commute.
Pfft I don't believe WFH actually reduces traffic congestion, now everyone is out hitting stores / running errands / going to the dog park / driving out to the lake while "working from home" instead of driving to work and parking the car for 8hrs. Stores are now packed at all hours Mon-Fri.

if you have ever worked in a large corporation that does outsource and dealt with people in India you would understand why.

Honestly the only reason I go to the office is to print big stuff and get away from the kids when they are home.

My wifes boss made everyone come back in full time, The next day 2 of her employees quit and now shes pissed.

Most people in office jobs waste half the day anyway. Let them have some life back.

it's not up to him or corporate america.

your best and highly talented will ALWAYS prefer a remote job, so they can move out of chitty violent expensive liberal cities with tons of traffic.

So dln't offer it? you keep losing your talent.

That's why WFH is offered. Not to be "nice". I work from home. My emploeyr knows if they cancelled it - i'd just go to their competitor. Office life is just meetings, coffe breaks, browsing and wasting time anyways.

I still come in for meetings and once every 2 weeks, so you cna't outsource to someone far away. Most know are hybrid anyways.

Taking advantage of wfh it is a legit argument. Trying to evoke some moral outrage about what's "fair" between different sectors of the economy is lame and manipulative.

I work in a company that employs ******

The only things ****** are lacking are standards and processes. Both of which they can gain by exposure to big companies as well as a proper outsourcing strategy by the company. The average ****** has decent intelligence, the only thing a company needs is a proper strategy to manage the average ****** from starting a caste war or taking a dump in the codebase

It's not one extreme or the other, there are gray areas and fine lines and balancing acts especially pertaining to potential moral issues like this

Elon doesn't even *need* to work another day in his life, but he clearly understands that work is how chit gets done and how we advance society whereas some people are on a quest to check out of working ASAP and want to sit around at home in their underwear until that time.

How in the world would anyone expect folks from other countries to solve the complex, industry specific problems we're asked to ever day?

Just lol at tradies or those who have to march onto their factory floor every day.
Didn't expect such a high IQ post from you, Sillie. In the marketing world we know that you get what you pay for. However, there are still clowns out there who outsource to ****** and find their site rank drop significantly. Major tech companies are worse off than they have ever been because they ignore the fact that skilled labor is not expendable.
