Deutsche Bank plans to go remote, days after suggesting 5% privilege tax 🤦♂️
Privilege tax on remote work?
Deustche Bank announced its plans for 40% permanent remote work, just days after recommending 5% privilege tax for remote workers 😅 Check this post to know more.
Coming back to this week's discussion, one of the prime advantages of remote working is a more balanced & peaceful life. Anyone who's worked remotely for more than a year will happily testify to this.
But you must know by now that any good thing that comes with remote working will need you to be intentional & disciplined about it - be it your work or personal life.
So today I want to share some amazing discussions we've had on Remote Clan in the recent few weeks around work & life when you are remote. There's of course much much more on the community, so feel free to explore by yourself or just hit reply & I will direct you to the right place.
My trick to balance work and family ft. Cooking
Prithvi shares how cooking helps him spends quality time with his wife daily. He also talks about the amazing side benefits like getting an outlet or testing their communication & ability to compromise. Our married lads, Justin & Karthik, are quick to jump in & applaud the initiative but aren't so keen to try it out themselves Read more to know why.
I am an early riser and don't use an alarm
Again, a nice hack on how Prithvi manages to wake up early every single day without an alarm and get a good start to the day.
Disconnecting from work when working remotely
An older yet very relevant discussion. You will get some amazing ideas for the 'Work is Over' ritual or fake commute like Alda's workout on an elliptical, Scott's post-work drink with his wife or Lindsay's solution around having a mantra/slogan. Read to know more of such experiences & advice.
