This week of remotely peeking into my colleagues' homes, with fleeting glimpses of young family members, put me in mind of a classic line from the Cluetrain Manifesto. Let's never go back to Fort Business

This fort is, at its heart, a place apart. We report there every morning and spend the next eight, ten, or twelve hours inaccessible to the "real" world. The portcullis drops not only to keep out our enemies, but to separate us from distractions such as our families. As the drawbridge goes up behind us, we become businesspeople, different enough from our normal selves that when we first bring our children to the office, they’ve been known to hide under our desk, crying.
