    Meanwhile, my lead, who insists I drive 40km which takes 70 minutes one way:

    “I can’t do teams meetings for design discussions, I don’t like drawing with my mouse”

    Me: “OK, get a Wacom tablet or wtv and draw with that?”

    Him: “No, just come to the office” for our 5 min talks we have occasionally and the once every two weeks 1 hr discussion

      I read this has: " I have an irrational need to be in the same room as you, here is a plausible excuse to justify it"

      Then you replied with: “here is a reasonable solution to the excuse you gave me so that we can all work better”

      And then it went down hill.
