Today’s show teaches listeners about the pros and cons of remote work for knowledge workers like IT professionals and technical writers.
Hosts Daphne and Fred share their analysis of the article "Should You Embrace Remote Work?" from the Curt Robbins & Associates Technical Writing Agency that was published on September 4, 2024.
An excerpt from the article: "Some experts argue that an employee who is reliable and productive when in the office will likely exhibit the same behavior when working remotely. By that logic, it can be assumed that C-list employees and slackers when working from the office will likely not magically morph into superlative staffers when keyboard tapping from home.
"In addition to reducing and hopefully eliminating distractions, remote workers and their employers need to recognize the need for specialized equipment. Ergonomic chairs, standing desks, and dual-monitor setups sometimes offer significant improvements in productivity. Because remote workers are typically engaged in daily meetings via video conferencing, a webcam upgrade and LED ring light can boost professionalism."
