WSJ Your Money Briefing · Setting Up Your Hybrid Work Schedule to Benefit Your Career · 24 Aug 2021 podcast

If you were the first one in and always wanted to be seen as the last one to leave or everyone else leaves before you.

If you're that kind of person, then you're probably just trying to get into the office and get in there at 8am and get the coffee chats in and make sure that your schedule is booked all the days.

The work experts we talked to said, if you're that kind of type A person, plan your day out, have a schedule.

If you're coming in to maximize it, just don't leave.

Don't do the things you can do at home during the time you're in the office.

Use that office time to socialize and network with colleagues.

But at the same time, there was a word of warning saying, don't let that get away from your day-to-day duties in terms of if you let networking and being too much of a social animal in the office get in the way of the work you're supposed to be doing, that can also backfire.

So keep that in mind.

Thanks so much for having me.

WSJ Your Money Briefing · Do We Still Need a 5-Day Work Week? · 30 Jul 2021 podcast

The experience of the pandemic and working from home is beginning to question all the face-time requirements of the workplace.

And that's been kind of the biggest driver here.

Thanks so much for having me.

Well, it all starts with a pandemic.

I mean, the tradition of the five-day

The 40-hour workweek is under pressure after really COVID-19 kind of calls into question a lot of our long-held beliefs about the structure and nature of work.

Companies have been experimenting with remote work and hybrid technologies and really trying to find new ways to give employees more flexibility.

The stresses of the pandemic have had us talking more about burnout and mental health.

So it's the experience of the pandemic and working from home as beginning to question all the face time requirements of the workplace.

And that's been kind of the biggest driver here.

And and this is a topic that's it's come up before in the past century.
