| Lopen 11/11/19 9:22:29 PM #116: | Speaking as someone who works remotely often, and has coworkers that are very foolmoey (though not nearly as extreme) in how they think... I fully believe if everyone was like foolmo claims to be, that in highly tech oriented professions where presence was mostly unneeded working remotely would be optimal almost all the time. It does remove a lot of overhead cost. It's not a realistic scenario though. Communication breakdowns occur, no matter how clearly things are communicated. Many people do not possess the technical communication skills to hash things out as effectively via remote. It's not just about how well you can communicate but also how well the others can receive and process your communication, and being able to absorb where they're failing to understand things efficiently so you can clarify things efficiently. If you don't care and are only considering your own efficiency in a vacuum rather than overall team efficiency, sure. If it's just about being able to say "well I did my part they didn't understand me" then sure. Many very competent people just aren't wired in a way where going purely remote isn't going to add a lot of its own overhead in needing to take more effort to explain and communicate things. --- No problem!
