Issue #3 (How to Convince Your Boss to Go Remote) 03/04/19
In addition to this week's list of tools and articles, you might enjoy this Hacker News thread:
Ask HN: How Would You or Did Convince Your Boss That You Can Work Remote?
A few answers are given from a managerial perspective and many gave their success stories in doing exactly what's asked. Maybe the most blunt and realistic answer says:
"Remote has to be baked into the company culture, otherwise you'll forever be the outsider, and be the first to be let go when the company hits tough times.
Find a job that already offers remote."
But there are lots of good suggestions in the rest of the thread, should you want to go down this path.
Now on to this week's hand-picked productivity links!
