[QUOTE="joegrizzy, post: 3885885, member: 45524"] yep, when i'm working i'm either editing on my computer here at home, running power tools out of the garage, cutting/trimming/mounting in my work room. those are the tasks that i can do literally any time, in my underwear or whatever. i also have works hours that i am directly with clients. during this time they have my complete undivided attention. this can happen basically whenever they need it, but usually during regular "business hours". the only difference is i'm not at the shop 8 hours a day just waiting on the phone to ring. i have the phone in my pocket, i can get and send e-mails, i do all that stuff while i'm doing *anything* else because i'm not stuck in an office. autonomy is good, it's weird like if you give people more freedom generally they use it for the good. if they don't, well that's on them. again, i don't think you realize *how many people already work incredibly inefficiently* and a large part of that is literally due to the work model being based around physically occupying a space for 8 hours. like say i'm working from home. BUT! there's the caveat in place that i don't have autonomy to just leave at any time and do whatever errand i need to; i must STAY in the house for 8 hours during regular business hours. you must realize how this immediately actually DECREASES my productivity and puts me into a mindset of "okay countdown until 5 pm". does that even begin to make sense? now do you realize what we're suggesting?
