I'd argue that if you're worried about what your salaried employee is doing between tasks, when their tasks are being completed, you're a bad manager full stop.

That's what I meant by saying people were incapable of managing remote teams.

You and I both know it's always entrenched senior leadership, too, and they're never the ones losing their jobs to incompetence.

This whole shift in working has been eye-opening and frustrating in equal measure.
