It amazes me that people who can’t distinguish between ‘your’ and ‘you’re’ are allowed to manage people

    We are a million-dollar company. Let’s act like one.

    Okay so that means you’ll schedule several people to be on-call, right?

      Right? I work for an actual megacorp and our policy is almost the exact opposite on every point.
      Sick workers make more sick: don’t work and feel better faster. Distracted workers makes mistakes and cause problems: don’t work and take care of your kid. Rested workers work better: take the time around the holidays off entirely. Productivity is crap then anyway and with so many vacations it’s easier to plan around a block where nothing happens than to deal with random teams having unpredictable delays. Car broken? Expense a Lyft. We have a corporate account and your ride to work is a rounding error compared to the sales visits.

      If you’re going to invoke money you should actually understand how big companies function and view money.

        We have so many tickets open with third party companies that almost certainly won’t get resolved until the new year that there’s no point worrying about our productivity.
