Police are suspicious
Agreed, itās not for everyone. Particularly those that donāt want to be gossiped about.

I am lucky in that I have made the small bedroom an office with a desk, chair, monitor, keyboard etc.
When I finish work I log off the work laptop, leave it in the office and shut the door.
It seperates work and home.

It certainly sped up a lot of remote working efforts in places. My last client had sufficient capacity for about 10% of the workforce to dial in. Within a week that was nearer 50% and 2 weeks later it was at 100% reliably. That was a 2 year project.
Iām not 100% a fan. I donāt miss working away from home 3-4 nights a week, or the long journeys or the hotels. But I do miss being around my colleagues, it is quite lonely being home alone sometimes and there are only so many Skype/Teams calls I can stomach a day.
For people with a 2+ hour daily commute, I canāt imagine many going back to that if theyāve got used to WFH - what a huge chunk of wasted time. And for what?
The biggest issue is management who view presenteeism as important.
Gender seems to be a differential to WFH preference
This will definitely help
Do these people assume that everyone else is a work shy chancer that would skive off at any opportunity given half the chanceā¦becauseā¦thatās what they would do?

Presumably there are targets for intern ogling and low level harassment that are incapable of being met otherwise.
I meanā¦ only the basic premise of ādonāt work, donāt eatā that freelance life entails prevents me from doing that so Iām not going to judge anyone else.

He can fuck off.
Iāve just seen Boris on the news, poor berated Boris, itās everybody elseās fault weāre in this shitshow. Here we are blaming the fuckwit and itās not his fault.

This. So very much this. Their whole view of life extends as far as the end of their nose or, every so often, some pretty young thingās arse.
Ch4 News ripping Bonzo a new one. Lovely to watch.
No wonder he doesnāt normally go on Ch4 along with most of his cabinet.

He hasnāt been on the Today programme for 2 years either, as Nick Robinson pointed out when he finally did show up this morning. He floundered a bit, but for someone whoās so clearly incompetent it wasnāt as bad a train crash as it might have been. I donāt think heāll be coming back though, after Robinson told him straight out to stop talking about what he wanted to talk about and have a go at answering the question instead.

Both programs should have told him to fuck off and not given him airtime. Itās a disgrace how infrequently his government provides ministers to these programs and Newsnight. Yet now that he wants to appear jovial and positive during conference they bend over backwards to accommodate him. Not impressed.

No channel is going to turn down an interview with the Prime Minister, it doesnāt happen that often.
Interviews I mean, not photo opportunities with sound bites

Wishful thinking on my part.
On his feet at the tory conference , continuing to talk bollocks, dreams and half truths and half the country will lap it up. The real world is passing la la land by.
