"How DARE my employees use WFH to take the edge off the negative aspects of being at work! I'm canceling WFH! They make me so mad I need to... have a tumbler of bourbon... from the fully stocked bar... that I keep prominently displayed in my office... for 'client meetings'... next to my office chaise lounge.

sips

I feel like the last hard worker left. Tsk tsk tsk."

"People who work from home are taking naps in the middle of the day! They have to get back into the office where we have nap pods!"

I solemnly swear to be less productive in person out of spite.

And I never even had WFH.

I am at the best 60% as productive at my office so forcing me to go in is more their problem than mine.

[-] metaStatic@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

this is the real reason they want everyone back in the office. You might realize being 40% more productive for the same pay is a shit deal and go elsewhere.

Well, forcing someone against their will to come into the office will push people even more to find an other job.

Especially the good ones, who can find a job anywhere.

I'm also done taking responsibility for time lost due to issues with my commute.

It's not my fault the bus was late. It's not my fault there was traffic. And it's certainly not my fault that I have a commute in the first place. I'm leaving at 4pm no matter what.

Not out of spite, but the 2 ish days a week I go to office I've been clear I'll focus on socializing because it's harder to focus to work in the noise of office

[-] Cryophilia@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Socializing can be very important for your job, depending on the job. Possibly more important than your actual "work".

[-] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago

True, but that's not the case for me (at least contractually)

[-] Zhao@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

Now that's commitment. Fuck ya

My company is forcing WFW after several years of WFH and we have had an incredibly low compliance rate, like 5%.

The hilarious thing is that the CEO, the one guy responsible for the push, works from friggin home. Lately they’ve been trying to crack down because he thought he’d go in for some rare office face time with us peons and was shocked to show up at an office full of empty desks.
