Its this, and especially with WFH there are is a pretty large spectrum of "productivity" among users. Some people are much slower than others, but we don't fire them because of it. People that think it's ok to have 2 jobs at once as long as they "meet their expectations" seem to be applying hourly assembly line or warehouse performance metrics to much more subjective work. It just doesn't work that way. If my less productive employee does good work, albeit slower I don't think he should be fired. If I find out the reason he does it slower is he's working a second job while I wait for him, then that's a different story.
