Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Working from home has been both amazing and isolating. However, say I was close enough to an office, my entire team is spread out so I still wouldn't be around my team in person to collaborate.
Nothing beats using my breaks and lunches for things like laundry, exercise, weeding my garden, etc.
But I need to be in the office to collaborate with my teammates who are in the other side of the planet via Teams!! /s
Isn't that the truth. I have colleagues in Washington, Oregon, California, New York, New Jersey, and Texas. Zero in-person collaboration potential.
Hey, are you my former employer? Only it wasn't the other side of the planet, it was just Texas.
That's the thing. Flexibitlity of choice doesn't work. If you want to have a productive office culture, teams need to be in the office. My ideal would be 3.5 days in the office. 3 days for the general policy, .5 days for those ad hoc things like meetings or other things. But working in the office sucks and is equally isolating when you have no team in the office and are on hours of back to back video calls with headphones on the entire time because there are no conference rooms. I think 3 days let's you have 2 days at home to do the laundry, exercise, etc.
