“The real concern driving CEO resistance is the fact remote work involves a previously unthinkable change in the way productive activity is structured and organised. If workers can do without the physical presence of managers, perhaps they don’t need managers at all, at least in the way they currently operate”
I manage teams of people, remotely. It involves, trust, respect, and collaboration.
I suspect the reason a lot of CEOs struggle with remote work and flexibility, is because they have a command and control mentality rather than these behaviours and values
* You can get reinfected within weeks of a previous infection. Immunity isn’t guaranteed by infection or vaccine.
This is because it is a virus that really damages your immune system. It is constantly mutating, due to being highly contagious and people not taking mitigation measures seriously.
“It will be with us forever” is the headline of this article.
And I mean yup, it will be thanks to a combination of: * Late stage capitalism * racism * ableism * social pressure and inertia * People individually opting out of social responsibility
On that last point. If you can mitigate, but choose not to because of “the vibes”, you’re not pulling your weight.
Apple are an imperfect corporate entity, and there’s no reason to give them any more leeway than any other corporate entity.
In terms of the DMA, I think they need to stop operating in bad faith. Working with it is part of doing business and supporting their customers in the EU.
* Farms have no financial incentive to avoid the spread, or disclose issues. * Public health as a whole has been abandoned due to COVID. * People are actively ignoring mitigation for COVID
Combine all of these things together, and we've a scenario where any human spread of a mutated flu is likely to get quite far before appropriate action is taken
@darnell yeah. Folks shouldn't have let their guard down with COVID either; the long term damage of repeat infections of that on your body, and long COVID, is no joke.
Fuck anyone who thinks rocking up to work alongside others when they have COVID is ok (including Lady Gaga).
Also, the idea that she gave support staff the choice with full disclosure? Laughable given the power dynamic and what would likely happen to someone who said no.
Yup. I feel much less hopeful about humanity and progress, post 2020.
We have faced (and continue to face) an enemy in COVID that requires a united approach in resolving, involving a lot of collaboration. Our governments, and people in general, failed the test on this.
