David Chisnall (*Now with 50% more sarcasm!*)It’s amazing how many LinkedIn posts say some variant of ‘remote work is bad because remote teams can’t do {thing remote teams have been doing successfully since IRC was the state of the art in communication for remote workers}’. And what they mean is ‘I don’t know how to manage remote teams’. It takes a special kind of arrogance to believe that just because you can’t do something that other people have been doing for decades, that thing is impossible.
prozacchiwawa@david_chisnall businesses have spent the last 2 decades atomizing us to make us replaceable, promoting tools which punish organic behavior and whose core assumption is individual tasks and individual responsibility. clearly being alone, monitored and stressed will be way better when you also can't control the thermostat or the co2 level.
