“And that is EXACTLY what these little snowflakes are rebelling against.”
Hate to break it to you, but I’m hardly a snowflake. I’m a 40+ year Engineer and Project Manager, and I’m doing my job extremely well from home for three years now.
If I need to have eyeballs or hands on something, I’ll go in.
Manufacturing type work and oversight needs your presence, but typing plans, designing process flows, and untangling stupid practices can be done mostly from my desk, and my desk doesn’t care where it is. For many jobs, it is not necessary to be there.
Good employees will give you good work from home. If you’re not getting good work from your employees, cut ‘em loose.
“Good employees will give you good work from home.”
^^^This^^^. And bad employees will give you bad work in the office.
There is no doubt that many, if not most, employees would do an honest day’s work. Unfortunately, a large chunk of employees will not pull their weight.
