NEED TO KNOW

Remote work headlines:

• Knowing that elections can prompt Americans (in both political parties) to want to leave the country, the NYT shares an overview of how digital nomad visas work.

• Amazon has made it more difficult for those with disabilities to work remotely, adding steps to the WFH approval process.

• What employers get wrong about how people connect at work — and why office mandates aren’t guaranteed to work.

• The future of work: “polyworking” — working multiple jobs. In 2023, 46% of US workers held either multiple jobs or a side hustle of some kind.

• What’s behind recent RTO announcements? The Verge podcast brings on experts to discuss the wide range of opinions and theories behind them.

Google doc with 20,000+ remote jobs

Have I been upstaged? A redditor shared a post in r/digitalnomad that links to a google doc with over 20,000 remote jobs scraped from across the internet using similar aggregator technology.

He also put together sheets for H1B jobs and general full-time jobs.

CAREER BOOST

beehiiv’s Remote Handbook

The email service provider I use, beehiiv, is a fully-remote company. How fitting!

They’ve seen outsized success in a short amount of time, and their CEO Tyler Denk credits remote work as a big part of that.

He shares beehiiv’s remote handbook publicly — study it, save it, and apply some of their principles at your own company.

RANDO

Standing desk companies: stand down!

It seems standing desks don’t provide as much health benefit as companies that manufacture them might imply.

All that said, it’s still healthy to move frequently throughout the day, no matter where you work. And standing desks do provide that opportunity for knowledge workers; plus, I know sometimes I want to stand while working — maybe it’s just a comfort thing. But just know for future reference: it’s more of a personal preference, and less of a healthy-living decision.
