I concur with this practice: Civil servants 'driving to office car parks to connect to Wi-Fi before returning home' as bosses have 'no control' over remote working

 I concur with this practice: Civil servants 'driving to office car parks to connect to Wi-Fi before returning home' as bosses have 'no control' over remote working even working at libraries which puts non-uniform civil servant presence in the field. A different take but even admin employees swear an oath to serve. I cherish the flexibility of remote work and when producing it does not matter where the work is being generated from if the device is being used with policy. The question is the security in the back ground; servants, vpn etc. - A.T. Yoda Brooks

 

 

Workers are defying rules requiring them to work from the office at least three days per week, with insiders insisting managers have a lack of control over staff who are "taking advantage" of flexible working.

Some staff, including at HMRC, are alleged to have faked in-person working by connecting to their office Wi-Fi from a nearby car park before returning home to work from there, a Telegraph report has found.

The practice has become so common that managers are aware of it and have even dubbed it "drive-by login".

An anonymous civil servant said staff also show up to work for a few hours before going home.

He said: "It meant you’re down for attending for the day and in theory you’re working in the office," he said.

He added it was common for "a lot of people to be in for a couple of hours and disappear".

Another HMRC official said the work from home took hold after the Covid-19 pandemic which formed a "lot of bad habits".

He added: "You can go years at a time without seeing certain colleagues."

"Do what you gotta do"

• "A man's got to do what a man's got to do" (famously associated with John Wayne).

"Do what you gotta do" is an idiom signifying that one must take necessary, often difficult or unpleasant, actions to achieve a goal or handle a situation. It implies a sense of obligation, resignation, or determination, frequently used to justify tough choices. Synonyms include "needs must," "take care of business," or "do what is necessary". [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

Key Aspects and Usage Examples

• Accepting Necessity: It is often used when dealing with unpleasant tasks that are unavoidable, such as in the example: "It's not my dream job, but it pays the bills. A man's got to do what a man's got to do".
• Reassurance/Resignation: It can be used to reassure oneself or others that a difficult decision was unavoidable, as described by a user on HiNative, for instance: "I had to let him go. I mean, you gotta do what you gotta do, right?".
• Overcoming Challenges: It emphasizes fulfilling obligations despite fear, danger, or discomfort.
• Contextual Sarcasm: In some contexts, it can be used sardonically to mean "do whatever you want" when someone is ignoring advice, notes Quora user. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Common Variations

• "A man's got to do what a man's got to do" (famously associated with John Wayne).
• "You've gotta do what you've gotta do".
• "Do what you have to do until you can do what you want to do". [1, 2, 3]

This phrase essentially serves as a pragmatic, sometimes fatalistic, justification for action. [1, 2]"

When your intuition says "Somethings (Situations) are about to go down"!!!

 

I have revised this post from the original publication. "That "sinking" or "lurching" sensation in your gut—often accompanied by a feeling of impending doom—is a real, biological, and psychological response, not just superstition. It is frequently caused by your subconscious mind processing subtle environmental cues (such as a shift in tone, body language, or a strange atmosphere) faster than your conscious brain can analyze them. 

When your gut is telling you that "shit is about to go down," here is what is happening and what you should do: Algo está a punto de suceder.

Why You Feel It (The Science)

• Subconscious Pattern Recognition: Your brain is a supercomputer that matches present experiences against past ones. It notices patterns—like a slight change in a person's behavior or a "funny" vibe in a room—and flashes a red flag long before you can logically explain why.
• The "Second Brain" Reaction: Your gut contains a massive network of neurons (the enteric nervous system). When you feel danger, your body releases stress hormones like cortisol and epinephrine, triggering a "fight-or-flight" response that causes physical symptoms like nausea, cramping, or a "drop" in your stomach.
• The Vagus Nerve: This nerve connects your brain directly to your gut, causing emotional stress to manifest as physical discomfort. 

What to Do When Your Gut Tells You Something Is Off

• Listen and Pause: When you feel that tightening in your chest or sinking in your stomach, stop and pay attention. Don't immediately dismiss it as anxiety or overthinking.
• Verify with Reality (If Time Allows): While trusting your gut is key, try to pause and check for patterns. Ask yourself: Has this feeling been right before? Is this situation similar to a past negative experience?.
• Protect Your Peace: If the "off" feeling persists, remove yourself from the situation or person. You do not need to justify protecting your peace with a logical reason immediately.
• Take Actionable Safety Steps: If you feel unsafe in a public space, trust your instinct to change your route, call someone, or enter a crowded, safe place, even if you feel paranoid.
• Differentiate from Anxiety: A true gut feeling is often quiet, subtle, and present-focused. Anxiety, by contrast, is loud, future-based, and tends to build, creating "what if" scenarios. 

When to Trust Your Gut vs. When It Might Be Misleading

• Trust the Gut: If you feel unsafe, pressured to do something against your values, or notice inauthentic behavior.
• Question the Gut (Trauma/Anxiety): If the feeling is constant, attached to panic, or arises from a place of fear conditioning (trauma), it may be a past trauma response rather than a present warning. 

Bottom Line: Your gut feeling is a powerful early warning system. If the vibe is off, believe the

George Orwell: 'Each generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it, and wiser than the one that comes after it.' 

‘There is wisdom in the above statement. Similarity it’s said that our parent’s generation would take graver actions to advance a cause; this is human. Let today’s youth stand on our generation’s shoulders & achievements but when WE say move or that we see passed the greed of money or sexuality that is the true way forward” - A.T. "Yoda" Brooks
