doing stuff that involves a decent chance of needing hospital services for non-covid-related reasons is also looking like a pretty bad idea right now

something i've learned about wfh is that i'm really poorly suited to 8 hours straight work

lemme do a couple hours here, gently caress off for a few, get back to it for a while, take a nap, few more hours from like 10pm-1am or w/e, long as it adds up

Lol if you can work more than 2 hours in a day not counting meetings.


I seriously don't know if my brain is broken or the world has finally gone off the rails. I went from one broken job to another in the past year. New job wasn't broken when I joined and then in the first 3 months things went south with a bunch of people leaving. I can't understand how people can do this every day for 8 hours any more. I always "hated" working, but at least I could put in the effort a lot more in the past.

I feel guilty as hell about it too because I get to work from home and prior to it I'd thought it would be a dream.

Actually considering selling my liter bike and sticking to the little slow supermoto for this exact reason.

the key is we don't do it for 8 hours op. we do the same poo poo as you: meetings, plus maybe 2 hours of actual work on a good day

I hope we all realise that the time has come for Hong Kong to take some tough measures. And every measure that we now introduce has been undertaken in other jurisdictions, including some places and countries which are very proud of their human rights, their democracy and so on. They are doing all these sorts of things because this is about life.

If the meetings are important then you push the work.

If the work is important then you push the meetings.

If both are important then you push your manager.

That's the problem, they're already dismantling the reporting processes and that's going to leave people like my wife and I no guidelines for when it's safe to leave the house for routine poo poo. very cool.

the answer is never, honestly

the US will just slowly recede into a death spiral as the older, unhealthy, and elderly all but vanish, birth rates decline as we’re seeing Covid causing stillbirth via destruction of the placenta, and mass emigration by those who can afford it, and would be the driving force behind any change in the country’s direction from the Ivanka 2028 timeline
