Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A week-by-week plan for the first 30 days in a remote job: set up the room, protect the hours, and stay useful without becoming the person who never logs off.You have a boss. You have a laptop. The workplace is now a spare room, a kitchen table, or a corner. This book is a field guide for that first month, not a freelance hunt, not a make-money-online pitch, and not a 90-day leadership tour.Short paragraphs. Headers often. Cards you can copy onto a fridge. Composite houses and seats from kitchen tables, spare rooms, studios, and living-room corners. Home as a workplace that can stop.What you actually get: - How to use this in week one: a one-hour card before the first remote MondayDay 0: chair, surface, door or signal, internet you have tested, promises you will not make on chat- Days 1 to 2: camera, mute, calendar, name, and the first status the household can seeHours that look like work: start, lunch, stop, written where people you live with can read themA household treaty: kids, roommates, partners, dogs, deliveries, leaf blowers, scripts not hopeThe commute you no longer have: put the fake extra hour back or name itMeetings from a spare room, including what you will not attend on a phone in a car- Chat vs the actual job, and a closed-door block for the work they hiredIsolation, lunch, and 2 p.m.: one leaving-the-chair ruleTimezones, quick pings, and the sentence you send instead of a 9 p.m. reply- Week four: a remote 30-day note about setup, hours, and what still breaks at home- Closeout runbook for days 31 to 60: signal, blocks, mute, treaty, stop- Back matter: 30-day calendar, week-one card, copy-ready linesThis is not HR advice, legal advice, immigration advice, tax advice, or wage-and-hour counsel. It does not promise you will pass probation, get a raise, or get promoted. Follow the handbook, the offer letter, and the clock they published. If a page conflicts with those, they win. No time-theft tricks. No looking-busy theater. Not a manager manual and not an office-onboarding map.Open to the week-one hour. Do that. Stop. The rest of the book is how not to spend four weeks proving you are dedicated by never logging off.Forthcoming tools from THE MUTE BUTTON PRESS: The Stop Time Card, and The Household Treaty.
