I get to have my pet sugar gliders sleep in my shirt all day. WFH is the best.

I can also go to whatever websites I feel like and shitpost on the forums. I used to work in an office at one of my previous jobs, it was hell. Working from home owns, you just need a decent computer and a comfy enough chair. sounds like a great time to move to

My work provided me a laptop dock and 2 monitors for WFH, I have a room dedicated for just work, a comfy office chair, can watch tv or listen to music without headphones, cats, access to my own food and coffee and I live alone. It's pretty nice so far op.

Can bosses really peep on you through the webcam?? That’s so creepy. I always keep mine covered up just in case, but I didn’t think that was a real thing.

Yes, absolutely. There was a lawsuit a few years ago when a school district was found to be monitoring students through their laptops.

Anyone with the right computer skills/tools and determination (especially if they're state-funded) can peep you through your webcam without the light turning on, so you don't know you're being watched/recorded. In April of 2016, James Comey advised people to put tape over their webcam. https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/04/08/473548674/why-the-fbi-director-puts-tape-over-his-webcam  Russia got footage of him wanking and told him to re-open the investigation into Hillary Clinton or else.

Let's be real. If you can't work from home, things were probably already poo poo for you, so don't blame remote work. "I'm not getting anything d-" You never do. "My company wasn't ready for remote work." Videoconferencing has been around for like 20 years. Jesus Christ do you still do all your numbers on paper with adding machines too? "I can't survive without seeing my coworkers." What you mean is you normally waste like 80% of your day bullshitting so now you don't know what to use to fill that void in your life. I suggest doing your job, and getting some hobbies like feeding your kids or donating your spare time to charities. "My boss sends an axe murderer to my house if I look away from my monitor for .02 seconds." Unless you work in a life-essential field like the power company, fuckwit bosses who do this poo poo need to go. This is bullshit even when you're in a cubicle in a monkey suit, but it's ludicrous when you're working remote. You need to adjust to letting people work asynchronously - like send a Slack message telling them what you need, and actually give them time to do it, instead of just expecting them to be at your beck and call like a slave. "Everyone in my house is an rear end in a top hat especially my wife." Babies and elder care are exceptions, but welcome to being a parent / spouse / sibling. You needed to stop loving up at this years before now. remigious posted:Can bosses really peep on you through the webcam?? That’s so creepy. I always keep mine covered up just in case, but I didn’t think that was a real thing. Most companies can open your webcam at any time, they track your internet searches, and they can turn on the microphone on your phone at any time to listen to you if your Exchange account is linked. They've been doing this for 20+ years.

BoldFrankensteinMir posted:I do not know, can you elaborate? For instance, to take this to the logical extreme, someone who now has to WFH when they're homeless. Again, this would only really be a concern in the event society really goes all in on this WFH business and even then we could probably work out certain compromises, etc. But it's worth recognizing that it does make demands on people's ways of life in ways that work generally hasn't before.

SidneyIsTheKiller posted:For instance, to take this to the logical extreme, someone who now has to WFH when they're homeless. Okay, that's a good point. Just because we're already shorting people on their commute doesn't justify shorting them in other ways as a replacement. If somebody is punching you because they had to stop kicking you that doesn't just cancel out to neutral because hey, you're no longer getting kicked. For a second there I wanted to argue "how do you have a job but you're homeless?" but then I realized oh right, America. That's how.

Na, it owns being able to spend the productive daytime hours on personal projects and then crank thru work stuff in like 2 hours at night. Biggest thing so far, besides not wasting 45-mins each way commuting (that you don't even get paid for), has been discovering home kitchen >>> work kitchen in every way.

revwinnebago posted:"My company wasn't ready for remote work." This is what my office ran up against this last week. We were all told we would be getting VPN access since we have data security to deal with and then we found out they were switching us to a remote desktop client... we have enough bandwidth to support about 50 users which is how many are on my floor. It's just too bad there are 75 people on the floor below us and 50 above us all clamoring for that same bandwidth. Good thing they haven't been able to get mine working yet so I can continue to stroll through the plague ridden streets about 6 blocks to my office from my parking garage amidst the homeless dudes toking out on the streets at 8:20 am. YAY! I've got asthma and diabetes and I'm seriously one of the very last people on my floor to get the ability to work from home. Although I will miss listening to Dan Patrick NOT talk about real live sports on the way to work. I guess I'll have to say, "Hey Alexa..." and make it play at my desk instead. The bright spot which I discovered today by being one of only a few people in my office is that when you log in remotely it unlocks your screen and everyone can see what you're doing. I only warned one guy I work with. It's going to be funny when managers are strolling around the office watching people's facebook feeds scroll and seeing people not actually work.

sudonim posted:what I'm gettin from this thread is that the wfh haters: Let me rephrase. After sitting in my chair for 8-9 hours once I'm done it is a little difficult to find the motivation to go to the gym etc. Generally I work longer at home than when I'm at work, I go on a few walks for 15 mins, I don't do this at home. I also log in around 6:30am instead of 7:15 and stick around after 4 for in case folks have questions (usually I will switch to my laptop at 4:30 and start prepping dinner or something. ) I so however snack more at home because it's nearby and easy to get to.

I'm working from home and every time I start to think "hmmm, this kinda sucks" I consider that I could be working retail and breaking up a fistfight between two boomers over who gets the last roll of toilet paper.
