Top PicksHand-picked articles, stories and ideas from the remote work community and beyond. Employers’ push to end remote work and return to office is stallingDon Lee | Los Angeles Times Most workers, too, think the current setup will stick.

Remote work requires communicating more, less frequentlyBen Balter Remote work requires communicating more, less frequently, because asynchronous communication involves less frequent, but richer communication, meaning there is less time talking about the work and more time doing it, allowing the system to optimize for throughput and flow.

Many people feel they work in pointless, meaningless jobs, research confirmsTony Trueman | Phys.org The theory that many people feel the work they do is pointless because their jobs are “bullshit” has been confirmed by a new study. The research found that people working in finance, sales and managerial roles are much more likely than others on average to think their jobs are useless or unhelpful to others.
