BRB. Rebranding "working from home" into the much more synergistic "Extreme Hotdesking".

Morning Moomins! How come everyone I follow has snow, but I do not? I want a snow day so I can call up work and say I can't come in.

I'll be honest, it was a relief to be using a laptop for anything other than Zoom!

What 2020 has taught me: I’m okay attending meetings in my sweatpants, with no makeup, and my cat. I’m liking this new version of myself 💁‍♀️

did one for remote work

I can't believe Zoom gives away their best feature, limiting meetings to 40 minutes, for free.

Don’t think of it as working from home, think of it as living at work, it’s much more depressing that way

definitely didn't pull the recline release while I was talking on a meeting and yeet myself back for everyone to see

doing an @ everyone in a slack channel with over 5000 people should be grounds for having your hard drive confiscated tbh

In Wales, we’re asking you to keep working from home if you can. We think this is an opportunity for a permanent change. Our aim is for 30% of workers to work from or near home. This will reduce traffic, support local businesses and provide flexibility. What do you think?

I got a bright green shirt and sat in a 40 minute zoom meeting until it was time to say goodbye and then did this:

The number one rule on zoom is ... you're an invited guest into someone else's home. If the kids invade then - they absolutely have the right to. It's their home as well. You can't import corporate "norms" into someone else's home. Learn to adapt.

Can anyone recommend some good ways to encourage people to turn their webcams on during meetings?

My son could teach me a thing or two about attending meetings remotely

if you die in zoom you die in real life

screen sharing your entire desktop instead of just one window is a radical act of workplace intimacy

Pro tip: Play music in your meetings, on occasion a good jam will start and the whole team will dance along 💚

I've just realised something I adore about Endless Video Calls™. I am *useless* at remembering people's names. I'm utterly hopeless. I used to joke that it would be brilliant if everyone I worked with wore prominent name badges. Now, thanks to video calls, they all do!

This happens at least once a week to me, and it is something to celebrate. I love having my children barge into my Zoom meetings and I love how my colleagues always handle it. @IAmCapitalOne

My new favourite game is spotting the people who are clearly talking over slack during video calls. Big giveaway when two people start smiling simultaneously 🙂

“You’re on mute” Is the work phrase of 2020.

I can see an argument for both sides on this issue, but Facebook deciding one way made it incredibly crystal clear that the opposite side was morally correct.

Paying remote workers differently solely depending on their zip code is immoral. If you can afford to hire from both San Francisco and St Louis, you can afford to pay both the same for the same work. If you can't afford SF rates, that's fine too! blairreeves.me/2020/05/22/pay…

As of today, Shopify is a digital by default company. We will keep our offices closed until 2021 so that we can rework them for this new reality. And after that, most will permanently work remotely. Office centricity is over.
