Good for you. This is really moot.

29, the age fits the angst..

I'm not saying WFH is bad. It should be allowed, but I disagree that it should not be a full working week. To those who prefer to work in the office, who communicate better in the office. Should be taken in to consideration. Sorry that my brain operates differently to yours.

When you start to throw personal insults, "ITS A YOU" problem those make your points very weak and blind sided. If I have a problem, I fix it but the problem isn't me.

We both have different jobs, it works for you and going in to the office for me. Which is what I do. Hobbies outside work? I have plenty.

Your angry, and I don't know why, you sure your not an disgruntled 35 year old? I'm disgruntled at 33.




I don't want to pile on you much, but I think both you and your team aren't equipped for remote work and could benefit from a better management and leadership. I changed job very recently, to a full remote team, it was the best onboarding of my life.


My team is fantastically equipped. The company provides, and after expressing my concerns in a team meeting today after I had posted my grunt, they acknowledge and couple of the seniors are going to come in a few times a day week to get me though the learning gap.

I am a contractor and have a large responsibility riding on this job. I am counting on being successful to get me to the next level in life, and the company. This is my major lifeline but I can't do it alone nor is WFH appropriate for the situation.

I'm under NDA so I can't say what. WFH is nice I understand. For those with kids, animals, distances. I fully get it. You should earn the privilege rather then have it handed to you on a plate. WFH is lazy.

It frustrates me, its new, its nice, its popular. Its just been thrown that everyone enjoys wfh. My feelings are that feel the 15years of working with older adults, in many jobs, learning the office ropes of each; that it will become a great shame that interpersonal social skills are going to end up lost to distant remote, communication.

Yes the office place could be better, WFH has it advantages but its not the holy grail. Its a silver bullet that bridges the gap for the time being.
