      Yeah, it’d be a shame if they had to do some real work instead of looking over shoulders and being a general nuisance.

      I know this is sarcastic but maybe the best thing we can do to ensure remote work survives is understand what managers are bitching about so we can address it. Just assuming it’s 100% micromanaging skulduggery and telling them to go fuck themselves doesn’t necessarily help us.
