This leaked today from inside webmd, the most bullshit corpo HR video I think I’ve ever seen.

To break down the obvious ones:

  • Employees who are obviously either drinking wayyy too much company koolaid or who know that their jobs will end if they aren’t in this video
  • An extremely out of touch CEO who wants things back the old way without giving any concrete data proving that it’s better beyond conjecture
  • A company with “internet” in the name who literally doesn’t understand the concept of the internet
  • Threatening and bullying language to force people back in office.
  • and just a nice touch, the office is of course not near mass transit or anything and requires driving in
  • Did anyone notice they were all on green screen, kinda proving that there was no need for them to be in person?

    Cognitive performance may also decline in remote settings:

    Your claim is you’re stupider when you work from home? And you’re basing that off of online chess tournaments?

      No, it isn’t; performance != ability, and it’s not clear that cognitive performance declines at all–hence the word “may.”

      My claim is that

      Cognitive performance may also decline in remote settings

      Nothing more.

        So your claim is pure speculation and has no real merit. Yes, I agree.
