    It’s the developer way. Being in office means that the team will never live with the consequences of their shit code. They’ll never fix the 10 things that annoy people every day because they don’t use it. But hey, at least they can all go to lunch together.

      You know that at any company larger than a small startup, developers tend to have little control over what they work on, right? They can try to convince management, but ultimately the decision is not in their hands.

      There’s a ton of things about our app I’d love to fix but my time is limited and other things end up taking more priority.

      Until they get a new manager who decides they have to stagger their lunch breaks

      Realistically, Teams would still get tons of use from people using the IM function so they don’t have to leave their desk, and the video chat function to facilitate meetings between coworkers in different offices.
