This. OP is probably a manager, and managers are often psychopaths who would absolutely steal if they could get away with it. Thus they assume that everyone else would steal if they could get away with it, and so WFH must not be allowed, because everyone will be slacking off and playing CoD.
Why don't you try leaving your laptop on a park bench for a couple of days? Maybe because not all people are like you?
And even more people, most people I would say, are not right-wing absolutists and they in all seriousness believe that it is the employer who robs them when they do the agreed work. So, in their minds, they don't even consider themselves doing anything wrong, they are just taking the opportunity to get a little compensation for what was stolen from them
This isn't any more evidence. But the fact that I'm currently logged in, working, is evidence that you're not on the right track. And yes, I did post on Hacker News when I was working in the office.
I’ve done remote work for years and never done this, and worked with many many people who didn’t either. So I guess maybe some people just want to do a good job and build something successful. I’m sure there are many people who do not but probably they don’t magically become successful if you can wrestle them into a desk chair in an office, either. They probably steal office supplies.
Is this actually a fact that you can prove, or simply a belief?
