But we can go anywhere we want in the world and they reimburse our expenses up to a specific amount. It's amazing! 2016/06/10 03:54:28 +0000 Comment by forestanderson I love this — "The key is not to add more hours, it's to squeeze waste out." 2016/06/08 15:30:35 +0000 Comment by Ryandury Great conversation Kevin! Thank you 2016/06/02 21:07:07 +0000 Comment by 2 Cent Dad Podcast Vacations over cash bonus' thats awesome! 2016/06/02 19:43:29 +0000 Comment by Ben Sullins Great post, having been a remote worker in both situations (majority remote and being a minority) I can attest Jason's spot on. It's incredibly difficult if you're in the minority, even if you have a good size team around you. I think there's some magic formula there for someone to figure out that could help solve this problem. Keep up the great stuff Kevin! 2016/06/02 00:05:59 +0000 Comment by brianyarbrough Fantastic interview with Mr. Fried. I am fortunate to work for an international company that understands that the people that I interact with may not be in the saame time zone where I live. They give me the opportunity to work during the time that I feel are appropriate for my work scope. I loved the thoughts on efficiency and distraction. This is something that not enough managers look at and could be a major efficiency point! Keep up the great content! 2016/06/01 15:19:19 +0000
