I realized when I was at Lotus that I was working mostly with people who
were not in my office so it really didn't matter much where I was.
Instead of fighting traffic at 830 I would drop the kids at school, go
home and work for a coupla hours, make phone calls, emails, work on
computer stuff,
I would agree with this. I have a team that I work with, two of which are
younger people about 20 years my junior, and one who is a few years older than
me. We all get along well and have a lot of common interests, so the social
interaction was definitely a part of the work day. I definitely mis
I was teleworking full time before I retired this summer and as you said,
missed the daily interactions with other humans. I also found that working
from home meant LONGER hours, since I had no reason to log out and there
was always a new email to open, which often kept me well beyond 8 hours.

This is a common finding in the research on remote workers who work from home.
They typically put in more hours because there’s no disconnect between home and
work. There can also be concerns that there is a perception that if they’re not
producing they’re not working. This is also something tha
I keep a definite separation of church and state, 8 hours after I log in I log
out and go do something else.Or sometimes, like hunting season, I take a couple
hours off to hunt and log back in after dark.I think the hip and trendy term is
"work/life balance".

Our HR department was reaching out to find some sort of application or logging
method to track employee’s time via Active Directory or VPN access.
We pretty much told them “No” and explained that logging can’t be a means of
time racking, as it’s easy to spoof and doesn’t always relate directly t
I've read about folks who have workstations that track active time, so if you
don't interact every 5 seconds or so it assumes you've left. Pretty good sign

The next thing is using the camera and screenshots to verify that you
are sitting at the computer and actually working on work stuff. Similar
stuff is being done for students taking online exams, to try to detect
cheating.

I’ve heard that our certification authorities are doing stuff like this so they
can still have people testing for certs. I’m curious as to how they do it…

For the online exams, you have to install and use a "lockdown browser"
which takes over your computer and prevents you from accessing any other
applications or unapproved websites.

How hard is it to track $$$ spent vs work received, and
You'd have to get rid of the CEO, CTO and all the other do nothing corporate
types that eat up the vast majority of the budget while providing very little
in return...
