Read previewA Zoom recording of a council meeting in a rural region of New Zealand uploaded to YouTube nearly four years ago has racked up almost two million views, with people commenting that they play it to pretend to be busy in the office. The video, uploaded by the Waipa District Council in April 2020 during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, shows a Zoom meeting of the region's finance-and-corporate committee. One is a product-marketing meeting uploaded by the software company GitLab and another is a finance meeting uploaded by the city of Santa Fe, New Mexico. Being in the office can be more distracting as colleagues do things such as "desk bombing" or pulling you into spontaneous chats.

SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — Voters have approved a tax on mansions to pay for affordable housing initiatives in New Mexico's capital city of Santa Fe. Tuesday's vote signals newfound public support for so-called mansion taxes to fund affordable housing and stave off homelessness. The buyer would pay $6,000 to the city’s affordable housing trust fund. Santa Fe voters previously shied away from prominent tax initiatives, rejecting a 1% tax on high-end home sales in 2009 and defeating a tax on sugary drinks to expand early childhood education in 2017. The Santa Fe Association of Realtors has filed a lawsuit aimed at blocking the tax, arguing that it the city overstepped its authority under state law.
