4 out of 8 hours a day of productivity is misunderstood. Often, the presumption is that people are goofing off the other 4 hours, but that's based on the industrial model of 8 hours of physical labor in factory like setting. But in an environment of primarily intellectual work, a better model would be that of the professional writer. 4 or 5 hours a day is the productivity limit of the most prolific creators. After 5 hours, you can still work, but quality suffers. We need to do away with the industrial model. Physical work and intellectual work are not the same thing and drain resources at different rates.

I completely agree with this and work with team management to get them to understand this and actually get better work out of their teams and happier employees that don't burn out. It still blows my mind we are treating people as if they are standing in a factory line assembling the first Model T Ford. #facepalm

I'm struggling with remote work due to cons 1-3. I don't feel connected to my co-workers or boss, it feels like there's no culture (not sure if that's because of remote work or the size of the company). There's so many distractions at home and I'm a procrastinator, so that leads to work not getting done. My employer actually has us use a timer program to prove that we're working which if you ask me is a little toxic. It's interesting that most in-office employees are only 50% efficient because that's on average how much time I log for my projects from week to week. Not sure if I just need another remote job with a less toxic environment, or if I just need to go back to the office.

Thank you for this video. I’m looking to transition from the government role into private sector with many of those jobs being remote. This is good food for thought.

The problems that I am encountering are limited supplies in ink cartridges are low in stock everywhere since remote workers has been authorized to work at home. Even my on line order was canceled due to a shortage of ink cartridges. I asked someone why this was so? He explained to me that many who are working remotely at home are emptying out the supplies from local stores and Walmart, and using company's expense account to buy up all of the ink cartridges than obtaing office supplies from their employers.

Which is why you invest in an Epson EcoTank series printer. For less than $300, the included ink package (both black and color) will last you at least 3 years! And replacement ink kits (again, includes black and color ink) are less than $50 for everything.
