I appreciate your comment. I wasn’t trying to be all “you should work, kids these days!” Or anything like that. Obviously I could have just ignored them, but sometimes we gotta die on the hill.
I think a lot of people don’t have a good working environment, and this hit home for them.
I get that people space out. Everyone does it at some point. My takeaway from all this is that I’m really glad I work with a group of people who respect each other and really want to help their fellow coworkers do the job they’ve been paid to do, so we all can pay rent.
Or sometimes it’s wise to filter out when some of your colleagues are filling out meeting time with nonsense. You only get brain fatigue and get nothing for it.
Oh, everyone but themselves. Some people have next to no self-awareness, you see. And if you have no clue what I’m talking about, chances are you’re one of them.
Of course, which is kind of my point here. But your rhetorical question only works if the situation is very specific, which is weird given that - as you point out - you have no insight into my situation at work. To summarize, you have no case.
This is how wfh can be for people who aren’t able to wfh productively.
Sorry people are piling on you! Tbh, I think your comment is more or less innocuous. I think it never helps to dig into it when people downvote lol
I really don’t think you deserved a lot of the harsher type comments, just my two cents

Sorry you were saying? I was having a shit
This is why I always refuse to be on video calls.
mega
The people who zone out will do so in person as well. I am that person.
I hope no one relies on you to do their job.
I hope no one has to work with you lol
Why?
Gee I wonder why, really…
Me too. I wonder. Using direct quotes and not interpretations, can you say why?
I will be quoting myself then. You come off as arrogant and non empathetic and just generally an asshole.
How so? If I’m in a meeting, I give my peers the attention that I would want them to give me.
Is this a bad thing?
I hope you understand you are a horridly toxic human being and nobody in life respects you :D
Also…I can smell the middle management on you. Its palpable.
Elaborate.
Or what…gonna write me up? Cry to the real boss?
Come on, let it out.

Is it nonsense to everyone or just you?
In my experience, meetings are 90% nonsense and usually could have been summarised in a single email.
I definitely agree with that.
Oh, everyone but themselves. Some people have next to no self-awareness, you see. And if you have no clue what I’m talking about, chances are you’re one of them.
I know what you’re talking about. But if you’re the only one in the room not paying attention, maybe you’re the problem?
Who said I’m the only one? I’m not.
It was more of a rhetorical question, as I have no idea what your situation is. Also, you have no idea what my situation is.
Of course, which is kind of my point here. But your rhetorical question only works if the situation is very specific, which is weird given that - as you point out - you have no insight into my situation at work. To summarize, you have no case.
I can ask whatever I want, and I’m not trying to make a “case.” This is a chat room, not a court room. Calm down.
