Remote work is making me lonely and depressed #remote #mentalhealth

Sun, 06 Jun 2021 02:08:00 +0000

I am a jolly type person who enjoys the relationships we make at office. For the past 1.5 years I have been working remotely due to the pandemic and I feel very lonely, depressed due to that.

Worst of all it looks like the remote work is going to be permanent and switching jobs is not an option as all other firms are offering remote work only.

Are you in the same position as me? What have you done to cope with this situation?

Remote Daycare for Children #remote #childcare

Mon, 30 Mar 2020 09:18:00 +0000

Now that almost all of us are working from home due to the COVID-19 pandemic situation, single parents are facing a tough time in taking care of their children and their work at the same time.

I'm unable to focus on my work and especially conference calls when having a hyperactive young child besides me. Since, we are all trying to follow physical distancing; there is no question of allowing a baby sitter from outside.

I was thinking if a remote daycare i.e. someone trusted (like those who are already working in daycare centres) could monitor the child via Skype or Facetime and engage them with games, videos etc. So that the parent can do their work in peace.

I expect this to be a need gap faced among single parents with no help all over the world, if so I would like to hear your story and solutions.

Creating a team with only remote employees #remoteworking #employment

Fri, 27 Sep 2019 04:59:00 +0000

Forming a good core team for a startup is a large challenge, having remote team could help with better talent acquisition and also reduce the costs for setting up the infrastructure. There is no goto place for getting full-time remote employees for a startup which is yet to be launched.

Available options are mostly focussed upon freelance workers, which wouldn't work for a startup needing dedicated workforce.

A Clubhouse for remote teams #remote #communication

Wed, 03 Feb 2021 03:29:00 +0000

We’ve been inspired by the growth of remote work, but at the same time, we’ve also seen teams struggling with lack of communication, delays in productivity, and isolation. We think that real-time connection without friction can help solve that problem.

Zoom fatigue is real. Video calls make everyone feel the way people on TV feel every slouchy, every mumble, every interruption is magnified. Drop-in audio talk lets remote teams spark a conversation with a single click.
