as someone never involved and never interested in being involved with anyone who has a mindset of cuckolding your company with VC interests, agree. my level of commitment isnt related to my level of attention and value to what I work on.

building the toxic association in your head that others have to match your own processes to "prove value" is a stunning display of lacking empathy, in the sense that you aren't looking to understand others motivations by superficially dismissing them to impose your exact working schedule and mental model onto others.

anyone right now with a remote job because of covid that stayed remote because of the perceptible lack of negative impact (showing this same scenario but from the context of upper management) would be a hypocrite to not also disagree with this stance.
