Remote working – Bringing sanity to mind and lessons worth learning

When I worked remotely there were people that were incredibly needy and every 10 minutes asked me about stuff they could easily have gotten from a web search and others got bogged down for weeks with issues that could be resolved in five minutes.

I always felt that good remote workers are very mature, communicate well and are respectful of others . I guess that applies to office work too but remote amplifies this.

I believe remote work amplifies everything. Inefficiencies, poor organization, bad documentation, poor communication, poor work ethic. Any stresses start to form cracks when taken out of the office environment. The upside is all of the things that a successful remote team requires are the things that you should be doing anyway.
