Comment on Watch out, Microsoft Outlook could soon give away when you're sneakily working from home

If your company is nationwide and has offices all over the country and you work on a distributed team where some people are on the west coast, some are central, and some are on the east coast. In this such event, none of your teammates will physically be able to tell if you are in the office. That’s what this feature is for.

So we can all continue to work from home, from a prescribed office of our employers choosing.

Ahhh the gigantic benefit of seeing a cubicle in the background of your zoom. Thanks Microsoft

  We’re concerned that your home doesn’t look soul crushing enough. Please upgrade your home office by installing fluorescent tube lights and covering your walls with rough faded blue grey cloth, or we’ll need you to come into the office.

    You can set a background as an image. And if you’re worried about it not being convincing enough, you can use a greenscreen

What? How would this change anything in that scenario? You’re still doing a video call if you want to talk to them.
