The government's proposed legislation to give workers the right to request remote working is a joke because it effectively gives employers the right to just say no.

If a job can be done remotely, workers should have a right to do it remotely if they wish.

Also love it when some white collar dude who’s working from home takes the day off because he has a mild omicron fever but yells on twitter about lazy teachers who won’t just tolerate getting sick in a roomful of 30 plus germy kids who can’t social distance.

We really need to incentivise WFH. Just look at how awful traffic is these days. Let shops, restaurants open but everyone else who can work from home (we know they can, employers are just arses) should do so.

WFH day 675: no this is not a meme, it's actually the day count.

Remote work isn't a "perk" if you're boss forces you to be available all the time.

Just because you're at your home-office all the time doesn't mean you should be on call.

Companies need to set boundaries for work hours and pay overtime/offer extra PTO if they go beyond that.

I’ve been working from home the last few weeks (I think I’m back in the office next week). What I enjoy most about doing the job from home is the daily morning hugs I get from my boys after they wake up and come see their mom in between weather reports. I’ll never forget that. ♥️

The right to request remote working doesn't sound all it's cracked up to be does it?

"I would like to work remotely please"

"You have the right to ask"

"Great. So can I?"

"No"

Oh god stop with this ‘but they were working together anyway’ crap - so were doctors and nurses and care staff and they were NOT ALLOWED to have birthday parties. And everyone else was forcibly working from home so they couldn’t ‘stop by for 10 minutes’ even if they wanted to FFS

Hyped to see ELDEN RING has gone gold -- February is going to be a massive month for new releases with Horizon, Witch Queen, SIFU, Dying Light and more.

I continue to be inspired and amazed by the scale of games these developers are shipping work from home.

7/ We are extremely careful. No travel, no visitors. I work from home. My husband would be home from work regardless of COVID for a year after transplant. It takes that long to recover and again, his immune system is like that of a newborn baby. We are careful because we know...

On Dan Wootton Tonight we're asking:

Is Boris Johnson right to force civil servants back to the office as they pledge to 'work from home forever'?

I must have been the first human to cook 5 meals while participating in a board meeting and listening to a pitch afterwards.

Working from home has benefits.

Cleaning up now is the yawwa 😩

Things we should keep from Covid:

- The option to work from home
- Masks on public transport (even just during winter cold season)
- Distancing in shop queues

Anything else?

Someone in my office literally crapped their pants yesterday. Yea I work from home and have three kids, but it's still disgusting.

I guess I find it more interesting that day traders that work from home got PPP loans than a burrito costs a buck more.

And they have providers working from home doing video visits while vets who need care are being turned away.

There is no public health justification for removing work from home where possible or mask requirements when we're at v high cases & high hospitalisations.

Plus we *have to* make schools safer, not less safe, inc clean air + offer vax to 5-11s, in whom cases are shooting up.

(PS, if you dont consider this <gestures> a shutdown, you might want to think about why having office workers work from home & some kids remote seemed like such a catastrophic shutdown to you. The US has not ever actually been shutdown in the way the fear-mongers like to pretend)

15. Dress well; wear a perfume

Just because you live by yourself, or are WFH, don't act as if no one sees you.
You see you.
Feel nice, smell nice, for your own self.
