I happened to actually read an automatic reply in email from someone who is (also) teleworking. Thought to ponder…

So what is it that makes this autoreply valid? Is this to say he is working much slower in email responses from home than if he was sitting at his work desk in his office? With VPN capability to provide him access to emails as if he was sitting at his desk? Despite telework training and requirements that he be working his job and maintain the same response and reaction time to the job? As in, no goofing off and doing anything not job related while working from home?
WTF???
