  • I agree to an extent, but while I’m not going to speak for everyone as my situation is unique, my role is as an individual contributor, and my role requires absolutely 0 teamwork. I have a set of tasks that need to be done by EOD, and so does the rest of my team. We don’t collaborate at all. When we were in office, the only benefit was we all sat together, so you could ask a team member for assistance if you got stuck on a unique issue.

    During Covid, they redid our office. There are no assigned seats anymore. So when they do ask us to come in, I work at a random desk by myself. It’s absolutely stupid. I’m wasting gas and time driving to the office just to make an appearance to stroke management’s ego so they can physically see me in person.






  • Yeah, but on a car with electric locks, and an electric lift gate which I’m assuming yours has (could be mechanical, but most cars these days are crossovers, so I’m assuming that’s what you have) a dead battery means you can’t open the trunk latch. It’s absolutely a stupid place to put it. You either have to jump it to open the hatch, or go over the back seats while taking out the floor panels to get to it. My own car, the battery is under the hood, but there’s 2 plastic pieces that need to come off via push clips, and if you’re stranded and don’t have something to push in the clips and pull them out, you’re going to have to rip the piece off to get to the battery and break the clips or the plastic piece. It’s fairly simple, but that plastic serves almost no purpose.
