What are we doing to ourselves? : Comments

By Ross Elliott, published 21/10/2020

The fascination for 'working form home' will I suspect prove a more short-term phenomenon. Come a hot summer, those ill-equipped spaces in our homes will prove pretty uncomfortable.

Yeah ........ can't wait for things to get back to pre-Covid normality and get back to the 9 - 5 routine in the office.

I'm sick and tired of working at home doing 6am - midnight 7 days a week to justify having to work from home!

I end up the loser working at home because I'm getting paid the same money for twice the hours.

That's just not fair! So come on everybody back to the office and start working half the hours you do when you're working at home.

Mr Opinion. If working from home means you need to put in double the hours to match your previous productive output?

It signals to me, that you are one of those unproductive incompetents, workplace bullies, who had most of your most productive output, done by others?

I said that this very outcome would happen when the leaners/the serially incompetent, were forced to cope without those they normally lean on and exploit! Suck it up bro and learn how to earn your own income with only your own intellectual acumen/abilities! Who knows, you might actually get good at it?

If not? Well, at least we'll be able to finally sort the wheat from the chaff!

Alan B.,

Actually I find I'm producing twice the amount of work when working at home.

I guess that's because I'm putting in twice the hours.

How would you explain it?

:-) Only joking, I know you have forgotten what work is. And isn't time for your afternoon nap at the retirement village?

If this virus does actually kill off city centers, the inner city office towers, & the daily peak hour commute, what ever it's cost in deaths, it will have been worth it many times over.

The totally old world activity of going to the town center to work was a pretty good model in towns of 50,000, & perhaps even 100,000, where no one lived more than a few miles from that center. It developed when everyone could actually walk to work.

The fact that it continued to this day merely shows that the dumbest people on earth are town planners. Their damn fool fixation on city centers & push bikes has done more to destroy our well being than anything else yet devised.
