I know everyone will think I am crazy, but I actually like to get work done at work, and I am so fucking sick of everyone bunking off and never being available with the change to remote work!

It is a real problem! People are just bunking off and not working!

I also saw this when people were in office, however. Eventually, some people just stop doing work completely and coast until they are noticed or find a new org to be a parasite of, a surprisingly rare occurrence.

And I say this as an extremely lazy employee who often checks out at 4pm. It gets BAD with some people.

Were they more available in the office? In my last job, the senior developer was rarely available and people complained about that while remote.

But because he was always in meetings or explaining things to management or fixing things that nobody else understood, he wasn't more available in the office either.

People just understood that he was probably in a meeting if not at his desk, but didn't make that connection with Slack.
