A friend of mine had a job where she worked remotely most of the time. She would never interact with any other of her colleagues unless if she went offline on Slack for too long or didn't get her work done. She managed to make some pretty nifty Selenium scripts to do the whole thing for her and delayed it to her usual working speed. I'm pretty sure she spent most of her time working there playing OSRS instead and I think she did actually go away on an extended holiday too.

I'm sorry, but a mental health day is a sick day, and if my mental health is helped by going to the beach, that's my business.

When the boss asks what are your plans your response is "my plans are my own and very important"
