Hell no. I wished for that back when I was stuck in the office, but working from home is incredibly comfy. I play video games and watch anime while pretending to pay attention to meetings and calls. I’ve been doing this for years, it's almost an ideal PoW life (only doing nothing and making money could be ideal :wolf_eyes: )

Hooo yeah now there's home office. Man I wish I could do that on my job 😠getting paid while gaming and anime is almost a dream sir
I know, the struggle and the dream are real. I’ll admit I’m pretty lucky, at least in that regard :purple_hugging:
I used to take my portables with me to work to game while iddle but that's no longer much an option. Working home being able to game while working I'd become an almost hikikimori for sure 😬
It’s great, though of course I can’t slack off all day. Still, it’s a thousand times better than 2 hours of commuting, rushing to eat, and then 8 hours of pretending to be efficient. I still remember my first office job: on the very first day, when I realized I’d have to sit there for 8 hours every day for years, a part of me just died.
I think that's an universal truth for any 8 hours job (CLT in our shithole) and commuting is where one's truly "live in death". I can't stop imagining the possibility of training an AI to behave like you and do your job but not an inch more efficient then *BAH* full power of slacking off all day lol
That being said, I hate open office spaces like hell. They are trash meant to monitor you and force you into working more. I hope cubicles come back one day, but ideally I hope all companies move to home office.
Do they do that only with that software (forgot the name) and fellow workers pressure on the enviroment, or they also add cams on top of all that ?
Depends on how much of a shithole the place is and how crappy the sector is. I’ve heard of managers checking security cameras before, but I’ve never seen it actually used against anyone. As for the software, sure, there are multiple ways to go about that. Generally, they don’t use outright spyware, but there’s always some kind of metric they can set up to track what an employee is doing. What drives me up the wall is when managers choose a random time of the day to stand behind you and watch you for like 30 minutes lol, happened a couple times to me in the past.
Man what a crap situation so along having cams, coworkers, this metrics softwares, managerd may also feel like pressure you in person. Longest 30 minutes of your life I'd bet, what a mess situation to put through.
With home office, it's all over now then.
