When working from home they will send emails instead that I can respond too at a good cutoff point

I was more productive working from home because when in the office I am interrupted frequently by associates asking questions

I think its all about control. Meanwhile the data has shown that people are as productive if not more so from home
I worked from home for three years. I guarantee you I would have been more productive had I worked in an office environment every day. :lol:

I didn’t mention my bicycle ride yesterday shortly after it happened to return two books to the library - it means it didn’t actually happen. The 20, gusting to 40mph NW winds must have been a figment of my imagination.

I think the kid at home thing is legal. I’ve seen that numerous times. Or stipulations like you need to notify them if your kid is home etc... The workplace being accessible for your boss to stop in is insane though. that’s got to be illegal.

Right before my wife left, they were attempting to add a ton of stipulations to working from home that I’m not so sure weren’t borderline illegal: no children under the age of 12 can be home with you while you’re working. If you do have children under 12, there must be another adult present to watch them. Your "work from home" spot must be accessible so your managers can "drop by" any time they want to check on you

Also biked 10 yesterday and 15.5 on Saturday. Along with a 2.0 mile walk on Saturday as well. But I didn’t post the maps anywhere online or post the stats on RRfan. So did it even actually happen?

Walky complete. 3.10 miles on the Jordan Lake trail while my son was at basktball practice.

Companies prefer to call it "Culture" ;-)

There was more BS, too, but those were the most ludicrous ones to me
