Microsoft Teams makes presence fiction in home office more difficult: With an update, the platform will track an employee's location via the office Wi-Fi.

          Agreed. I feel like I’m in one, and the things that make us thrive are being tested like an immune system, against what feels like a deliberate Maek Number Go Up infection. It’s stressful and I can only try to trust that it’s necessary. I guess we have to keep that stock number up or else we get bought and destroyed by a competitor.

          Not a fan of this whole system sometimes.

          I’d argue they evaporte more and more every year as companies are acquired or if they get a new CEO that’s all about cutting costs blindly without any regard for quality or quality of life.

          Not many left.
