Gee, who would have ever thought that letting employees supervise themselves at home was a bad idea.
Think of the trillions of dollars wasted in the past building office buildings.

Are you curious about what other people have been doing while working from home during the pandemic? It's always interesting to find out about how people really spent their time—and not what they tell their bosses, family and friends.

At the early onset of the outbreak, we learned that there was a lot of alcohol consumption, eating, pot smoking and watching porn, while quarantined.

About a year later, a study showed that people working from home are having sex, taking naps, dating, shopping online and doing side hustles on company time. Around 50% of the respondents to the survey said that they’ve worked for another company, while on the clock with their employer.

Last week, the Wall Street Journal reported on a scintillating new remote-work trend. It appears that “white-collar workers, in industries from tech to banking to insurance, say they have found a way to double their pay.” Their schtick is to “work two full-time remote jobs.” Like Fight Club, the first rule for these folks is “don’t tell anyone” and “don’t do too much work, either.”

The Wall Street Journal checked the workers’ offer letters, employment contracts, pay stubs and corporate emails to see if they were being honest. The dual-jobsters told the paper that they “earn a total of $200,000 to nearly $600,000 a year, including bonuses and stock.”








This doesnt surprise me.
Look at the reports on wasted time on social media/games/shopping.
Many people at a desk really don't have a full days work to do.
Especially customer service/management.

It seems today there are two types of employer.
The ones that are are fat with people,
And the ones that burn folks out.

We have on line training for all kinds of things at work. From safety to processes. How in the hell in this day and age would you not be able to tell what each employee did or didn’t do??? Everything we do has a time stamp and or expiration or non compliance. Sounds like KWFA was one of the remote workers not really working. No way your company didn’t know who did or didn’t complete the training.

Just for the record, I have been in person since day one of the plandemic. Haven’t missed a day of work yet.

We had about 11 people on a team. At the end of the 6 weeks, 2 of them asked for additional time, which we did. then another 2 weeks.After 10 weeks of this, my guy starts checking on them. Turns out they have done nothing - haven't even touched the training material

I suspect they interviewed for the job, got hired and collected 10 weeks of salary ,which was roughly about $21K before taxes while still working their original job.

Live and learn - from now on when we hire someone in this situation we'll have to have them show progress in a live demo each week as opposed to taking their word for it.

But if any of you don't have a moral compass and want to earn some free money, this is a way to do it


So, you’re hiring then?
