Date: April 20th, 2018 7:17 PM Author: cyan round eye Apparently, too many people have been bitching about others being 100% remote. Fuck this ghey earth. Why can't those fuckers find a remote position or STFU. Now, I have to find another gig. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3955242&forum_id=2#35884743) |

And I think they're gonna win out eventually. It sucks. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3955242&forum_id=2#35884775) |

Date: April 20th, 2018 7:24 PM Author: cyan round eye Yea. I'm in a completely diff state. This sucks. Going to see if my boss can get me fulltime classified as perma remote with the GC if I approach with a counter.
Chances of remote getting pulled is like 25%. There are enough ppl remote that this would be a clusterfuck. |

Date: April 20th, 2018 7:25 PM Author: territorial field I actually get way more work done from home. My office at work sucks. Small monitors and it's depressing. And people drop by my office every 3 min to chat. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3955242&forum_id=2#35884860) |

Sounds depressing and miserable....and I'm intoroverted.

Date: April 20th, 2018 7:23 PM Author: territorial field It's nice if you have a good home office. I have a super nice chair, monitors, etc setup and a nice view out my home office window. I also live within walking distance of a coffee shop and a bar. It's very pleasant. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3955242&forum_id=2#35884815) |

Date: April 20th, 2018 7:25 PM Author: At-the-ready salmon rigor What if you had a 5-10 min walking commute to work and a nice office with a view?
Would you then still prefer WFH? |
|
Date: April 20th, 2018 7:26 PM Author: territorial field I would definitely enjoy working from the office more, but I still think I'd like working from home part of the week. It really breaks up your week nicely to have a change of pace. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3955242&forum_id=2#35884872) |

Date: April 20th, 2018 8:24 PM Author: cyan round eye Not really...some ppl like the office interactions or separation of home and work. I tend to work more hours now than before bc office is 15 paces from the bedroom. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3955242&forum_id=2#35885188) |

Date: April 20th, 2018 7:28 PM Author: brilliant shaky jap juggernaut I once had a coworker who was being an idiot about working remotely. You need to still do a reasonable amount of work and be responsive when WFHin'. This idiot would barely log into lync and treated it like a 100% vacation day instead of a 75% vacation day. Wouldn't respond to some basic questions to some higher ups who needed something soon. Almost caused us to all lose our WFH privileges. I wanted to strangle him. Luckily, his general idiocy and lack of awareness is no longer a big deal because he was pushed out (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3955242&forum_id=2#35884898) |

Date: April 20th, 2018 7:35 PM Author: cyan round eye Not sure if that's the cause or not. The remote ppl I know are pretty responsive. What I do know is that there was a mini-townhall and junior and midlevel attys were complaining about not being able to wfh. GC said it is up to your boss, but I have a feeling others are putting pressure. Other WFH peers have confirmed.

Date: April 20th, 2018 7:32 PM Author: brilliant shaky jap juggernaut How do you plan on fighting this? Do put out good work? Just some general advice - dont be a bitch about it and push back. Make it clear to both decision makers that work is still getting done...and make it clear to the divas to not get on your bad side (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3955242&forum_id=2#35884926) |

Date: April 20th, 2018 7:40 PM Author: cyan round eye Yea. I put out good work. Business seniors like me, turned down a promotion to lead a team in EMEA, my boss likes me and his boss likes me. Euro business pays for me to go out to Euro and work on special projects.
Prbly get another offer and get them to change me to 100% remote with GC blessing. Alternative is I cop a gig near where I live.
Edit: unite with other remote workers. They tend to be seniors so that's good. GC may just tell juniors to stfu as he's not replacing attys with 10yrs+ exp bc some juniors bitch |

Date: April 20th, 2018 11:24 PM Author: cyan round eye I hope so. It'd suck if I am asked to return. Wife and I pretty much resettled in this city. Looked at other inhouse gigs and everything looks like shit. I'm hoping that in the most likely worst case scenario that I'll get like a 1yr notice before I get walking papers (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3955242&forum_id=2#35886265) |
