I have a pretty similar work flow. I stay on top of my crap, they stay on top of theirs and everyone’s happy. As long as they’re doing what they’re supposed to I don’t give a damn if they’re also taking some down time during their day.

Fair. I’ve had a few bosses like that.

I’ve been working remotely for almost a decade now and have been a manager for 6 of those years and I do the following:

Is [EMPLOYEE]’s work getting done? If yes then do nothing aside from thanking them. If no then talk to employee and/or start the corrective action process.

I have neither the need nor the desire to hover over them. They’re grown ass adults.

With your face right at prime fart receiving level. Wtf.

I mean look at all of our past successes in the Middle East /s

I can’t afford a used car either so I’m driving this Subaru until it’s unrepairabe. It’s nearly old enough to vote.

Going to have to eat something with food costs being what they are.

I assure you you won’t regret it.

Ah that book ending though. chef’s kiss

This is exactly what I was looking for.

Mine’s almost old enough to vote!

Should have known I’d already find the Roci here.
