Teleworking has always gone great in my career. Everywhere I've been employed at during the last 7 years has implemented it to some extent. I've seen it first come online, and that's typically the worst time, as everyone is getting used to the concept and reality.
People will learn, people will adapt. Every chance causes ripples in the pond, you just need to wait for them to smooth out. -
@monkeyboy you could say the same about communism and other utopic ideas as well :))
@Voxera my yesterdays experience is that it took the usual 5 min to have everybody join -
@Voxera um.. what do they do when the person doesn't join in time & you have no way of going over to collect/slap em? 🤔

@sladuled we run the meeting without them.
I finally realize why the managers at my work are so against remote work.
We've gone remote now and had a meeting yesterday that somewhat demanded people to be engaged. I have never seen such grown up and otherwise professional people act so irresponsible. Managers had to raise their voice towards 30+ year olds in order to get their attention.
I've been silently hoping that remote work would become more accepted, as a silver lining, during this Corona shit. But if this is common behaviour in other workplaces then I guess I can kiss that dream goodbye.
