Look, we all knew it was coming, but now it’s official. Microsoft just handed middle managers the ultimate weapon. Their new update for Microsoft 365 allows companies to track exactly where you are, and the days of pretending to be at your desk are over.
This has been in Teams for years. Let’s be serious if your boss actually cares then get a different job or a different fucking boss.
My work/manager has the best possible way of managing: get your work done, dont make drama, work as little or much as you need. We have to try to get 45 hours but almost no one does or they pad their timesheet. But then there’s weeks you travel and work 60 hours (but its actually work not wasting time)
Works great for people like me who are useless from 1 pm to about 3 pm, but really able to get a lot of work done from 5 to 7 ish. Unless youre missing meetings, no one cares where you are. I could go to Hawaii tomorrow with my laptop and do the exact same work I do now.
