The article discusses the paradox of remote work, which was expected to reduce workplace conflicts through digital tools. However, instead of decline, counterproductive behaviors have evolved. Troublemakers adapt by using digital platforms to manipulate communication, disguising chaotic behaviors as hyperproductivity. This results in overwhelming colleagues with messages and calls, complicating detection and response. Digital isolation further prevents coworkers from sharing experiences, allowing harmful behaviors to go unnoticed, highlighting the inadequacy of technology in addressing underlying social issues in workplaces.
The shift to remote work promised a reprieve from the daily hassles... But rarely do technological changes solve social problems.
The modern workplace troublemaker has become incredibly adept at weaponizing the very tools meant to improve collaboration.
