Notes from Arlington, Texas # 64

what's going on? im just stressed and unhappy. it's the same thing over and over again. i dont know what to do about this. i really dont.

i dont know what to do. im just kind of not happy. i dont. know. what would help me out.

what's on my mind?

i don't understand it.

okay. so what i want to know is. how does an emphasis. so. how does the individualized projects / team projects dichotomy reconcile itself with the work from home (WFH) / return to the office (RTO) dichotomy? and. i'm not trying to suggest.

anyway. i think that i've come with a solution to. like. how to respond. to any kind of. anyway. i'm not really going to worry about this for now because. i'm really not in that line of work anyway. and i have no intention of pursuing that line of work.

when i think about this. i just really don't want to suggest anything. i don't want to bring up anything that could. like. challenge the work from home (WFH) movement. i don't really want to say anything that would suggest that i'm anti-work-from-home, or anything. because.

and then, let's suppose hybrid-work environments. how do you hybridize individualized projects and team projects? what is the industry jargon for hybridized individualized collaboration work?

okay. i'll just take a position. if the team is the be all and end all of a project, then (RTO) would be optimal, wouldn't it? because you would have that additional layer of in-person collaboration that you just wouldn't get from tele-conferencing.

okay. so here. i have an idea for the. well. here's the thing. there are arguments for both sides of the return to the office (RTO) / work from home (WFH) argument.

one issue. one idea is that the (WFH) movement is a conspiracy on the part of the collaboration software industrial complex, how do we know this: cui bono! and, you could also say that, anyone who returns to the office (RTO) is, by definition, a team player, even if the person is a total introvert.

honestly, what side am i on? honestly: cui bono! i benefit most from (WFH) because i really don't like traffic. like really. why is there so much traffic. it's a car maker conspiracy! yeah. that's full disclosure.

and. yeah. that was really more thinking than i wanted to do after reading a short tweet and a few supporting tweets. 

i want to say that. i'm probably going to stay off of twitter for the time being.

i'm fucking tired.

alright. i'm feeling better. but. well. i wanted to say: who knows how long this will last. but. i don't want to think that way. i want to think. things are okay right now. and i'm sure they'll get better. i'm sure that things will continue to improve.
