So, is my employer going to pay for my overage fees when I exceed my data cap working from home?

I actually get really bored and demotivated by it pretty quickly. I like the interactions with coworkers as a reprieve (albeit minor one) and being able to work around downtown whenever.
Been home for 45 minutes. Already bored.

Spoke to HR at my new company - they said "worst case" scenario is I start getting paid by them on my start date but don't actually start work till they're back in the office.

Sounds like the best case to me.

I can't be the only one who finds the exclamation point more than a bit absurd.

I think it’s great. There’s a couple down the road with three elementary school-aged kids in a 1000 square foot two bedroom condo. I bet that’s going less well.

I have several meetings a day which makes Dougray's subtle suggestion a bit unpalatable. I'll adjust, just a lot of downtime to get used to. There are a lot of guitars up here, though.

The absurd boat set sail a long time ago. I'm guessing this is just a "course correction" in hopes of getting the market to like something he says.

That's actually a popular misconception. What Canadians actually love is beer and friendship
