Why does the nerd have to resort to the "hoodie"?

How about if managers get over their power trip, and allow nerds to work whereever, and whenever, they need to, in order to get into the zone? These dumbass open, shared work environments are horrible. They don't help with productivity, they hinder productivity. And, don't even mention "collaboration". That's a bunch of BS. Nerds collaborate just fine, using Slack, and other tools. Actually, they probably collaborate even more.

The truly talented managers know that it's all about productivity. Deliver high quality code, on time, I could give a rat's ass where you work. Bingo!
