#telecommuting — Public Fediverse posts

I guess it's sweet that the dog has decided that I'm not to leave my home office without her noticing.

But when the naps right behind my wheelie chair I worry she's going to get her paws run over!

My "commute" since moving to the Chicory House isn't much longer than it is at our regular home, but it does involve going outside. Want to see?

Now that we've finished our move into the Chicory House, I have for the first time in over two months been able to set up my preferred coding environment... with a proper monitor on a proper desk with a proper office chair. Bliss!

Today's mission in what we're calling the Chicory House - our home while our actual house gets repaired - was to unpack the kitchen. I think it's looking pretty good!

(The cardboard box you can see contains pans we brought with us that turn out to be incompatible with the induction hobs at the Chicory House, boo!)

Next weekend's mission will be to set myself up a workspace that isn't the conservatory dining table. 😬

And allow and encourage #telecommuting and #RemoteWork for jobs that can be done remotely! @anubis2814 @j2bryson @gerrymcgovern

I've lived in a LOT of different places these last few months while we've been arranging a place to live for the next six months or so of our house repairs. Each new AirBnB has had its pros and cons (and each hasn't felt like "home").

But man, I really like the "garden office" at our current one. So nice to work in the sun!

(I don't like the slow WiFi as much, but yeah... pros and cons!)

Just a mini-blep this Twenty-Sixth of Bleptember, from a certain attention-seeking doggo who insisted on a cuddle from me while I sat in a Zoom meeting.

Off to my first day at Firstup. Gotta have an induction: get my ID badge, learn where the toilets are, how to refill the coffee machine, and all that jazz.

Except, of course, none of those steps will be part of my induction. Because, yet again, I've taken a remote-first position. I'm 100% sold that, for me, remote/distributed work helps me bring my most-productive self. It might not be for everybody, but it's great for me.

And now: I'm going to find out where the water cooler is. No, wait... some other thing!

13/ And let's not forget that the BEST commute is NO commute. Covid has shown that while there are drawback, #telecommuting can work for MANY jobs. It's carbon efficient, and requires at most limited upgrades to infrastructure. If we can even cut back one or two commutes per week per worker, that would be a HUGE improvement. But there are many job categories where this ISN'T possible, and that's where we get into unintended consequences. Should be another thread. This one's too long...

Someone in the A-suite of #corporations can tell me, perhaps, why forcing employees back into the office with a surge in #COVID cases happening is a good idea? Keeping your people healthy and also saving money on real estate and utilities seems like a much better idea. You can have hotel cubes (you probably already do) for needed office days. Just a guess but this seems more a desire on your part for MBWA. #telecommuting #RemoteWork #business #management
