What if the reason you get to have a nice vacation at a particular time of year is that you are able to join important meetings from wherever?


I don't see the word vacation anywhere in the article.


The title says "infographic", and the word "vacation" IS in the infographic. Specifically, it states "47% have worked when they were on vacation". Under the image with a colspan of 2. ;)


Yes, vacation (or even non-working hours) would be implied in this case? Sunrise to sunset.... is that what we really want? Sure we want to be connected, but not necessarily "working".


I think they're saying that people work when they want to work. Not imploring people to work on their vacations.
