We have seen them in Bloomberg, The Wall Street Journal, LinkedIn, The New York Post, The New York Times, and all of the “big guys”; thousands of paid articles trying to lure, or better said, trying to scare workers back into the office. They are saying people want to go back on-site and claim that workers feel more productive when working in person; some bluntly accuse remote workers of being lazy. The truth is that companies are saving lots of time and money when their workers perform their jobs remotely, and their workers are saving lots of time and money working from home. No commuting, no buying expensive clothes, no spending on fancy and small city lunches, and, as equally beneficial, remote workers don’t have to waste time entertaining the office gossiper, can avoid the toxicity of some coworkers, don’t need to put up with “micromanagers” or have to constantly find excuses to get out of forced socialization venues such as happy hours, corporate retreats, Secret Santas, etc; where many employees find themselves obligated to join even when they don’t drink alcohol, don’t have any extra money to spare or simply, they don’t feel like it, but they participate to avoid being bullied, ostracized or ridicule later as a form of group punishment for not being a #teamplayer
We all know that NOT everyone can do their job remotely, at least for now, but the workers who can should!
Because it is NOT that remote workers work less; they work better and more time & money efficiently. And BTW, f••k hybrid!
Yes, we believe that Remote Work is a good thing! And we support it by creating a whole original collection about it. Enjoy!
