I love it. Love the freedom
8and make your schedule thingy.<h2 id=you-work-more-not-less>You work more not less</h2><p>I've heard from people things like: "Oh, you are so lucky, working from home,
9having all the free time you want". It was obvious they had no clue what means
10working remotely. They had this romantic idea of remote work. You can watch TV
11whenever you like, you can go outside for a picnic if you want and stuff like
12that.<p>This may be true if you work a day or two in a week from home. But if you go
13completely remote all these changes completely. I take some time to acclimate
14but then you start feeling the consequences of going fully remote. And it's not
15all rainbows and unicorns. Rather the opposite.<h2 id=feeling-lost>Feeling lost</h2><p>At first, I remembered I felt lost. I was not used to this kind of environment.
16It felt disoriented and a part of you that is used to procrastinate turns on.
17You start thinking of a workday as a whole day. And soon this idea of "I can do
18this later" starts creeping in. Well, I have the whole day ahead of me. I can do
19this a bit later.<h2 id=hyper-performance>Hyper-performance</h2><p>As a direct result, you become more focused on your work since you don't have
20all the interruptions common in the workplace. And you can quickly get used to
21this hyper-performance. But this mode requires also a lot of peace and quiet.<p>And here we come to the ugly parts of all this. <strong>People rarely have the
22self-control</strong> to not waste other people's time. It is paralyzing when people
23start calling you, sending you chat messages, etc. The thing is, that when I
24achieve this hyper-performance mode I am completely embroiled in the problem I
25am solving and this kind of interruptions mess with your head. I need an hour at
26least to get back in the zone. Sometimes not achieving the same focus the whole
27day.<p>I know that life is not how you want it to be and takes its route but from what
28I've learned this kind of interruptions can be avoided in 90% of the case easily
29just by closing any chat programs and putting your phone in a drawer.<h2 id=suggestion-to-all-the-new-remote-workers>Suggestion to all the new remote workers</h2><ul><li>Stop wasting other people's time. You don't bother people at their desks in
30the office either.<li>Do not replace daily chats in the hallways with instant messaging software.
31It will only interrupt people. Nothing good will come of it.<li>Set your working hours and try to not allow it to bleed outside these
32boundaries and maintain your routine.<li>Be prepared that hours will be longer regardless of your good intentions and
33your well thought of routine.<li>Try to be hyper-focused and do only one thing at the time. Multitasking is the
34enemy of progress.<li>Avoid long meetings and if possible eliminate them. Rather take time to write
35them out and allow others to respond in their own time. Meetings are usually a
36large waste of time and most of the people attending them are there just
37because the manager said so.<li>The software will not solve your problems. And throwing money at problems
38neither.<li>If you are in a managerial position don't supervise any single minute of
39workers. They are probably giving you more hours anyways. Track progress
40weekly not daily. You hired them and give them the benefit of the doubt that
41they will deliver what you agreed upon.</ul></div></article></main><section><hr><h2>Posts from blogs I follow around the net</h2><ul><li><a href=https://chotrin.org/writing/2023-10-20.html target=_blank rel=noopener>OpenBSD upgrade and fall things.</a><div>Been AFK for a bit.
