                1. An interesting thing about remote employment is that it centers on one thing more than anything else: Trust.

                Your entire livelihood is based on whether or not people trust not only your capability but your intentions

              This goes for all of your teammates as well. Everyone must be trusted. 100%. Once that starts to shake, you feel unstable. You panic.

            It's easy to let that panic spiral out of control so very quickly. You dread logging in some mornings. You start working weirder hours.

          Getting out is tough, but communication is the key here. When things go bad, everybody needs wins. They need them together. Start pairing.

        Grab a couple of hours. Pair with your coworkers. Talk, B.S., joke. fix something small. Fix something big. Fix both of your current issues.

      Those little wins. Those are what keep people afloat. When things go bad and you're there with others, you can at least laugh together.

    You lose these little human moments when you don't take the time to think about them. Sometimes the mundane stuff is what keeps us going.
