My RTO Success Story

Thanks goodness for RTO. My productivity is way up. So much so I wanted to share my successful office routine:

9:00am: Well actually 9:23am because you know, traffic. Roll in sit down. Get that laptop out and for it up.

9:32am: Laptop is logged in open email and Teams so it looks like I'm here. Time for coffee. Let's go to the break room. Taking the scenic route.

9:52am: Got back with my coffee and snack. Time to look at my calendar. Okay first meeting at 10:30am. Time to check Fox News and trade some stocks.

10:30am: First Zoom meeting glad I'm in my cubicle to talk to everyone on Zoom.

11:00am call is over. Was intense. I need to walk around and think about it.

11:20am: Walking around and time to take a dump.

11:45am: Made it back to cube after walk and dump. Check emails. Buy something on Amazon. Trade some stocks.

12:00pm: Lunch time. Let's drive somewhere.

1:30pm: Back from my long lunch. Let's check Fox News again. Trade some more stocks. Next call at 2:00pm.

2:00pm: Next Zoom call. Super productive now that I am in the office. Vibe is way different than taking a Zoom call at home.

2:30pm: That call was intense. Time to go for a walk. Bathroom break, break room break and outside break.

3:15pm: Back at the desk. Trade a couple more stocks. Work on an excel for 10 minutes. Getting tired. Time for another coffee..

3:45pm: Back at desk with coffee. Check eBay and look at emails. Traffic probably bad. I need to leave early.

4:15pm: I'm out of here. Kids home from school. Bye.

@c7
some since they don't live near BR (think NYC)
executive parking lot too so they don't have to mix up with the plebs in the elevator to the top floors (also badge restricted)

@b4
I sign on and go get an omelet from my cafe friends in BR. No reason to cook breakfast! I do miss the Dunkin' coffee

C-levels have the same workday, except they have drivers to and from work, to free up their minds from the cognitive load of driving in traffic.

No. Find a way to live with it.

Do not forget to tell a bunch of people that you are over worked, and need to have some stuff taken off your plate...

Everything that is wrong with VZ right there. Get back to the office, work hard and get sh*t done. Or if that’s not for you, leave. You have choices….

I think the more important question is, if all you do all day is attend meetings then what measurable productivity do you bring to the table.

You need to be terminated. You are the prime target for RTO.
