Women everywhere are accustomed to weird old men asking them to ‘smile more’. The classic back-handed diss has become so frequent in everyone's life that we've all learned to roll our eyes and move on with our day, well-aware that ‘smiling more would make us seem so much prettier’. I'll smile later when something's funny, but will never do so just because a random stranger suggested it as a beauty tip.

Working for a company across multiple timezones can be a challenge. For the CEO's in London, it may seem simple to schedule a lunch meeting, but for their lowly employees on the west coast of the USA, it's 4am. To avoid all of the WFH employees showing up with robes on, their eyelids drifting shut, and a useless coffee in hand, teams need to coordinate heavily in order to make meetings go smoothly.

Working remote has its perks… but it also has its downfalls. Although you have the freedom to work in your own home (or wherever you please), it also means that upper management never actually knows who you are, which seems hunky-dory until you realize that, as an expendable employee, it's never been easier to get fired. Unfortunately for one employee, he got sideswiped by this reality in the worst way.

You know it's going to be a juicy discussion when the user has deleted their account within hours of posting a viral thread… This worker landed themself a new job, working remotely , that offered them higher pay and greater responsibility. They found themself with little to do initially, which they found to be a little strange, but seeing as this isn't uncommon in a lot of jobs, which often allow workers to ease into their role, leaving additional tasks to be picked up as the worker gets into t…

“I thought I was muted,” this remote worker admitted.

People's reactions seem to be split on this one!

Remote workers love working from home and Boomers simply can't wrap their brains around that. Nowadays, with so many jobs going remote, some managers are panicked that they'll never get the chance flaunt their $400 ties in front of their lowly employees, over-squeezing their hands with every handshake and blurting uselessly affirmative business mantras to ‘boost morale’. Okay Boomer, but we don't need to waste 2 hours in the car to commute to the office just to...

Here's hoping this manager learned that her power trip was certainly not worth it.

She asked for honesty, and honesty is what she received.

Everyone has had that moment of panic on Zoom when you thought you were on mute but you weren't.

I'm all about that sedentary lifestyle, baby

As much as we want to side with the employee on this one, you have to be pretty bad at your job to get fired after 2 hours.

The internet can't agree on this couple's dilemma: who has the rights to their computer room?

A good rule of thumb if you know you're eventually going to quit your job: keep a list of all the so-called "questionable" moments.

It's always surprising when decisions directly contradict an organization's stated values and fly in the face of their own data and analytics. Yet, many companies' responses to remote working are exactly that, choosing to return to offices despite increased productivity and record profits. It leads one to wonder… why? The real answer we'll never know, but it is probably close to what is often theorized in these discussions: Somewhere a manager—who still hasn't adapted to their perceived loss of…

One remote-working couple is stressing each other out, writing, “This is very petty, but we need some help."
