<p>There is an interesting article in the New York Times this morning that I hope lots of people read that means you Mr. Benioff. It's a tale of a shoemaker's kids going barefoot.</p><p>It seems that Yahoo, trying to breathe life back into a sclerotic organization, has cancelled its work from home policy and is now mandating all workers report to the office every day. Good luck with traffic at the bottom of Silicon Valley. The commute has just gotten worse.</p><p>The discussion covered in the article sounds like a low calorie beer commercial from the 1990's. One side says we need people in the office every day to promote collaboration, creativity and innovation. The other says at home workers are more productive so leave us alone. Tastes great! Less filling!</p><p>Sometimes I wonder if our inability to compromise as a society stems from this simplistic Boolean logic in which there can only be two sides and by definition the side you oppose is wrong. It harkens back to the religious wars of the Middle Ages, but I digress.</p><p><a href="http://www.enterpriseirregulars.com/59266/the-case-for-collaboration/">Keep reading...</a></p>
