@jt1001001 so a question for everyone who is a proponent of lan-less (office-less) do you compensate employees for using their home as work space?
Nope, part of that compensation if you need a push back is - you aren't spending gas money driving to work anymore - and if you're not on video calls, you don't need a professional wardrobe... not a huge savings, but likely noticeable in most households.
My counter to that would be, if you no longer have an office space you're saving a ton on rent/mortgage and are putting that burden on the employee to have a "work space at home for business benefit".
Thus I should be compensated.
At least that's the argument to be had.
And I don't disagree with this at all - and neither does the government - if you have a dedicated space to home office - you can write that off on your taxes...
So sure, I see both sides.The bigger issue I really see is - most homes don't have a good setup for home officing, and if they do, it's likely only for one person, not two or more.
think of a family of 4 with the two adults working from home. Assume the house is three bedroom and has a den (which 90% don't). One adult in the den, one likely in the living room/kitchen, and the kids in their bedrooms.
toss a third kid in there, now what?
I have a very very similar situation setup here at home. My wife and I are working back to back in the basement (aka man cave) of our home (three bedroom split level). Both the girls are in their bedroom for virtual school. Thank goodness we have a 100mbps connection.
For the most part all has been going OK except for when we both need to be on the phone. If there was a third kid, we would have issues.
One of many reasons why I wanted a home that has 4+ plus bedrooms.

Yes, over night- after a eleven hour work day ( hour drive, nine hours work, hour drive home) loaded up and hit the road at 6:30 -7 pm.
Feel like I just pulled a @scottalanmiller 🤪

Dropping off a laptop at a customer site for staging, then heading to the next client to finish network rewiring before my first meeting at 11 this morning. It's 9:15 now, wish me luck.

Just finishing up something that should've been an easy to fix issue, "can't print" turns out the server in question has unrepairable corruption, the hypervisor is almost completely full (disk space) and the system in question has no real backups.
Worked on this most of last night, and just finished working on it now to a point where the customer can operate while we work on a final remedy.

Well the way the music industry got it taken down is a bit insane, so I fully expect it to be back soon. If it's not already up on gitlab or any other number of platforms.

Can always install youtube-dl using pip which is how I access it.
