Eliminating actual human interaction isn't necessarily a good thing.
The next step is remote humans will not be needed when AI can do the exact same thing but better.
If you can work from home, you can be easily be replaced by anyone anywhere... Think about that.
What an absurd statement. Our program manager is WFH in another state and it is a commonly held belief our entire operation would die in apocalyptic fire after just one day if he wasn't doing what he was doing. I would even go so far as to say he is the hardest working person in our organization, period. Or at least tied for first. Truly indispensable.
Man, TA has succumbed to this constant "all or nothing" extreme statements like yours. CAN it be true for some? Of course. But why try to pass it off as pure gospel when it isn't?
People here REALLY need to brush up on their qualifying statements.
You are kidding yourself if you think that you are the very best and least expensive person that can do your remote job.
Everyone is replaceable. I don't care how good you think you are or someone else is. There is always someone bigger and badder than you and they are probably right around the corner.
When I left corporate, my boss was about to have a heart attack over it. Was completely beside himself.
I told him he wouldn't even know I was gone within two weeks. It's a big company. Someone will step in better or not and fill the gap. The boss gets distracted and moves on. In my case, I had done true succession planning for my department so I was 100% confident that the gal replacing me would be a seamless transition. And depending on the topic/function, she was smarter than me anyway.
I was right and he hasn't missed me other than having a friend at work, someone to shoot the **** with, and to lament corporate politics,
