No. Not incorrect.

Yup. Incorrect.

You are perhaps an exception.

Then my entire team of 10 people is an exception.

I will concede that there are ten people in this country who can work remotely if you will concede that there are several million who will not.

Yes, you are.

Or rather, you are about 10% or so.

In most companies I work with, “remote work” is “No work”.

Our remote staff in corporate is pretty good at delegating all tasks and accomplishing nothing. Enough so that when two of them quit, we did not replace them and saw 0 loss. One was our EMS guy, who managed to do zero recordable work for SIX BLOODY MONTHS. I called him a few times, and there was always enough background noise that I knew he was out and about.

Locally, most of the layoffs with John Deere were remote workers. They were replaced by overseas workers or just eliminated.

Now there are great exceptions. Many IT people are very productive outside of an office. No politics, no personal interaction that can be negative. Work in their jammimes.

But for most people, remote work does not work.
