Let's talk about the "hardworking dad" narrative for a second.
Staying late at the office is easier than going home to a stressed partner and a toddler. The office is quiet. Nobody's crying. Your coffee stays hot.
And yet somehow the person who chose the easier option walks away with the reputation. Dedicated. Provider. Hard worker.
Meanwhile the other parent has been on since before sunrise. No lunch break. No praise. No one calling them employee of the month for keeping everything from falling apart.
Overtime isn't always ambition. Sometimes it's just the path of least resistance — and we've built an entire mythology around it.
Before we reward the long hours, it's worth asking who's picking up the slack at home to make them possible.

Gizmodo: Using Emojis at Work? You’re Not Going to Like This Study 😮. “So, crying-laughing emoji, you’re not going to believe this—but, spiral-eyes emoji, a psychological experiment has found that incorporating emojis into your workplace communiqués might be leading your peers to perceive you as incompetent. But not always: the mercurial purple devil emoji, as always, is in the details.”

Why food has become one of the most powerful workplace benefits
As corporate leaders refine hybrid strategies, rebuild culture and search for meaningful ways to bring people together, one dimension of the employee experience continues to be underestimated: the shared dining opportu…

Beware of "Guess what I am thinking disguised as brainstorming"
. This is when a leader says "there are no bad ideas," but they're really just waiting for someone to suggest the answer they already pre-determined! 🛑 #LeadershipFail #WorkplaceCulture -
Overheard in the office:
Cuts and attrition have cut so deep that a single person taking a sick or vacation day leaves some tasks without any coverage. Managers are handling that by calling on people to cross-train, but that piles on additional mental load onto a team that was already stretched thin.

In the dim dark ages, before the internet, before the BBS'es, even before office computers, there were office bulletin boards and cubicle partition, graced by old school #memes images photo copied over and over to the point, original strokes were degrading...
... This was a way to show rebellion and individuality by the #workers. Usually the #workplaceculture could be quite accurately established via the number and #passiveaggressive tone of the images.
Little detail lost in the mists of time.

The Grind Is a Scam and I’m Done Buying
Daily writing promptDo you need a break? From what?View all responses Everyone keeps asking if I need a break. From what, exactly? From being stretched thin by a job that sucked the life out of every square inch of my patience? From pretending bad management and broken systems were somehow my personal growth journey? No. I don’t need a break. I needed an exit. So I quit Domino’s Pizza. Cue the shocked faces. Cue the fake concern. Cue the “are you sure?” like I just announced I’m […]https://ericfoltin.com/2026/02/07/the-grind-is-a-scam-and-im-done-buying/

The Work I Did After I Stopped Working
I quit Domino’s two days ago. Two. Days. And in that microscopic slice of time, I’ve done more actual work at home than I did in months of clocking in, clocking out, and pretending any of it mattered. That should bother me. It doesn’t. It explains everything. For years, I was exhausted but accomplished nothing. That’s the magic trick of modern work. Keep people tired enough they stop asking questions. Keep them busy enough they don’t notice they’re spinning in place. Domino’s […]https://ericfoltin.com/2026/02/04/the-work-i-did-after-i-stopped-working/

HR & organisational performance
High-performance teams don’t emerge from inspirational posters or one-off workshops. They’re built through consistent systems — and HR is right at the centre of that process. Team Building – The Art of Building High-Performance Teams gives HR leaders a clear framework for shaping behaviour, communication, trust and accountability.

We've been conditioned to police tone over substance, to value the appearance of decorum over actual #competence or #character. We've let the people with power redefine #professionalism to protect themselves while weaponizing it against everyone else.

Here’s something for the workplace philosophers among us: If your software knows where you sit, does your work-life flexibility slide away? The newest feature in Microsoft Teams will automatically update your “work location” when you connect to your company’s WiFi. In one stroke, the tool adds clarity (“Yes, you’re in the office”) and raises tension (“Yes, your boss knows you’re in the office”).
TL;DR
🧠 Teams auto-detects location via office network
⚡ Status shifts from remote to in-building without you clicking anything
