Today we forget Carpenter's Day because our entire team is celebrating Remote Work Implementation Week. Whether you're stuck in quarantine or like we're at full throttle, it's worth applying a dose of readings. Today's treatment includes texts on the organization of remote work and errors in projects and the lessons learned from them. We end with an example of responsible behavior.
