• When the pandemic started, my sisters and I would work from the dinner table. Then gradually we all drifted into different rooms, buying desks to work on. Pretty soon we had our own offices in our house. These people don’t know or care to find out what normal people are like, they make decisions based on their own assumptions and that’s why their employees hate them.

    Treat them like humans, take the time to ask them what they think. Have some goddamn empathy for fuck’s sake.

    • Completely agree! It’s a privileged place to be in to have the room to dedicate to an office but I think it’s necessary to have that setup to work from home properly without screwing your body, if nothing else.

      • My office is a 4 by 4m corner of my bedroom. I’m lucky in that I can devote that much space to it. But it’s all about having a place you can dedicate to being your workspace. If that’s on a couch, then let it be on the couch. At the end of the day, if you’re fulfilling the tasks outlined in your job description then there’s really nothing to complain about.
