enjoyable rant but the idea that some people won’t focus on others in meetings or their work because they have their phone therefore nobody should work remote is really d-mb. letting the bottom 10% drag down the rest of the people is always d-mb. just get rid of them if you can. we let too many good things in society crumble for fear of offending the bottom 10-20%.
also most of those people will do this to your face even in the office. and does he think people don’t dodge calls in the office as well?
the idea of leaving new people behind who don’t properly learn office socialization or dynamics is his most compelling argument. overall the data doesn’t support lower productivity from remote work so whatever old man.
here’s how i imagine him
