Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

See, that study that suggested 4 day work weeks increase productivity (and that a majority of companies kept after the trial) apparently lacked the ever so important control group of working 7 days a week and for extra hours per day. I'm sure that really increases productivity.

While we're at it, no remote days and everyone work in an open office with no cubicles or walls to block noise, and certainly no distracting windows.

Wow. Add in the micromanager oddly obsessed with seeing my bum (in a chair) and that's why I changed jobs.

Just naming stuff research has demonstrated to be bad, haha. The literature is quite definitive on it, but you know how the MBAs in management care about research.
