Elly is brak! Ze heeft gisterenavond haar laatste werkdag bij het spoorwegmuseum gehad en dat goed gevierd met bubbels. Daarom gaat het over zweterige handen, emotionele momenten en wanneer Freek de Jonge het tijd vindt voor een applaus. In ronde 1 ‘AFK- away from keyboard' raadt Daan afkortingen die veel gebruikt worden in geschreven internettaal. Daarna leren we van welke “dokters” geen adviezen moeten aannemen in het spel ‘Is er een dokter in de zaal?'. Daan blijkt een voorliefde te hebben voor groene ketchup en de kerst-afleveringen van series, vooral vanwege de belletjes in de leader. Dronken jullie al koffie op de middelbare school?
In this episode of Stuck@Om my good friend Matt Mullenweg joins me. Matt is the CEO of Automattic and a founding member of WordPress. Matt usually travels extensively for work — he logged over 500,000 miles in the air last year — but is enjoying his extended time at home. Recently, I started embracing a concept Matt popularized called “Away From Keyboard”, shortened to “AFK”. It began as a simple way to relate that you were away from your desk but evolved into a way to encourage vacation and time off. It's important to embrace rest and restoration — it helps us become more productive and mentally stable. Matt shares that they've cultivated a culture at Automattic that's open and honest, where everyone communicates freely. They've found success implementing an open vacation policy (taking as much time off as employees want or need). Every 5 years, Automattic requires its employees to take a 2-3 month paid sabbatical. Matt finds those team members return full of ideas and renewed energy, positively impacting the company. We also chat about the importance of virtual social gatherings and the importance of continuing human-to-human connection. Matt also shares some tips for those new to the work-from-home model. Be sure to listen to this short but expansive conversation.

Away from Keyboard is a new show from Changelog that talks to creative professionals about how they do what they do, where they started, and how they deal with the things that make us all humans. As exciting as our work can sometimes be, we all face burnout, a lack of motivation, mental and physical health issues, and more. While these are topics that can be difficult to talk about, our experiences shape who we are and teach us so many things. AFK is a show that explores the human side of creative work.
