Workation - nice or stupid?
(imagevars.gulfnews.com)
I have recently received several ads on LinkedIn regarding workation. I am not sure if I think it sounds stupid or not.
I get the appeal of going south (I am from Denmark, we just had the most rainy summer ever recorded) and enjoy the weather, but at the same time it sounds like the perfect way to not enjoy your time abroad.
I work in a position where I could easily ask to work remote for a week or two, thus the targeting ad is correct that I am in the segment.
Any thoughts, experience or opinion on this?
The only way I'd do that is if my employer paid for travel, food, and lodging. And even then, I'd do as much as I could before leaving and then just phone it in during the week as much as possible.
