I was wondering if you could just ignore that characteristic

The faster career movement thing is real and I'd a big reason I go in.

No matter how effective learning remotely is, it's much more organic in person.

Not to mention relationship building with superiors is definitely a plus for a number of reasons:

  1. You can learn from them
  2. When promotion time comes around they know they would be able to work with you.

When promoting someone, being able to choose someone you know wouldn't drive you crazy is a huge positive. And most would rather promote someone they work well with than someone who is anti social but is 5% more effective in their metrics.

I go in freely 3 days a week. I'm in a role that is focused on relationship building and collaboration (product management/leadership) and find I do much higher quality work when I'm in the office.

I still have enough solo work to do for the two days i am at home.

Having said that, I'm compensated quite well and enjoy the country driving to the office as it allows me to listen to audio books uninterrupted and decompress after work.

Youd give up ownership of the company and extremely employee focused culture, guaranteed favourable yearly increases, as well as the company paying for you to get personal stuff done professionally in order to stay working from home?

This sounds incredibly reactionary and illogical.

I shudder to think what they'll do for recordest profits

68 civilians died in pearl harbor.

140,000 died in Hiroshima.

I wouldn't call that in proportion.

I upvoted you because I vehemently disagree with your opinion. It's kind of skirting the line on being straight up evil

It's hard to change habits that have be ingrained into you since childhood.

Not impossible, but really fucking hard.

Actually maybe I was watching a different movie

I also thought the all Male nude musical number "choose to be gay" was a little much.

Hey that's not a bad idea. We could install these receivers on people's roofs or in big parking lots
