People wielding great power & responsibility walk the corridors of #COP27. When I walk the same corridors, what I see is a space of smoke and mirrors.  Today I asked leaders to be real & accountable.  Smoke and mirrors betray the people at the frontline of the climate crisis.

@CelesteCote @altspaces Sounds interesting! I’ll pass it along to the team and they can coordinate contact at the right time. The work now is going into how to align with other major data vis platforms, and bring it into our reporting, though front end UI will be part of it. truth-and-beauty.net

Can we all take a moment to recognize @plpilon’s incredible courage for talking openly about the elephant in the room—the human cost of accelerated transformation—and helping others to do the same? This will save lives and careers. #fwd50

@jc5008 @remoteli_io Very good point Jocelyn; To the event's credit, they used 'return to workplace'. Unfortunately I ran out of characters and was editing it to be short + pull up with the hashtag that has been surfacing. But I absolutely agree, it creates a negative connotation. Thank you for this.

@remoteli_io @altspaces I'd like to point out that it is not "returning to work". Public servants pivoted quickly & went above &beyond to answer the call to service during the pandemic, working long hours with ridiculous deadlines. This misnomer devalues our commitment. Please use "return to the office"

Attended an event - How to help ees #ReturnToWork without too much stress - with 700+ #GC MGs. It was really upsetting. The talk was biased towards in-office work, included many negative stereotypes about remote workers, didn’t present research on human/equity benefits of #WFH.

One fundamental mistake software design teams make is behaving like they are the main character in their user's life story, and not the other way around. Design as if your user -didn't want to use your product or develop expertise -hasn't thought about your product for months

I know I frequently talk about sacrifice and an ethical dedication to working in the public service but let me be clear: requiring any in-office work is a hard no for me. There will be a massive talent exodus from the IT side of the public service if this happens.

@dr_abela Sadly, you were right! I was hopeful for a rich discussion focusing on how to support employee well-being from wherever they choose to work from, but instead heard about how one should check in on remote workers’ deep work, mentioning nothing of presentism in-person!

@hearthgirlnl There was certainly data - it was meant to be about the science of stress, yet it seemed conveniently curated to amplify an already established point of view. There was also lots of storytelling, that conveniently skewed in a particular direction.

@afhill From what I know, the telework agreements usually say it is at discretion of your manager and can be revoked at any time due to organizational need :( unfortunately, it treats telework as a privilege that you as an employee have no control over.

@altspaces I'm looking into a telework agreement now, but officially it says your need to have been with the dept for 12 months. I'm hoping an exception will be considered, bc I would not have accepted this job in Jan had I known I wouldn't be able to work from home.

An open letter to the Government of Canada supporting flexible remote-work options. 8930 signatures. I've worked remotely for government since 2014, not being co-located with my team most of the time (thread).

@afhill I think part of me is also feeling the frustration of 'mights' and lack of clear accountability. Who is making these decisions? Is this based on a policy or an interpretation of a policy? What do we need to work on influencing, individuals, organizations or broad policies?

@altspaces It was raised in a team mtg that we in the regions would likely also be expected to report into the nearest office in accordance with the hybrid model
