pretty common in IT

I've never heard of anyone in IT regularly remoting to their work computer.

If we remote anywhere it is to a jump host, and those are terminal servers, so no monitor connected.

Yeah this is a pretty weird setup they've got going on.

Like you say they're going to be remoting onto their work computer and then having their remote connection remote onto another remote terminal server.

It's a holographic holodeck all over again.

I think it's kind of an old school way of doing things. My old sys admin boss did that every day up until her retired.
