    Why don’t they add in shit employers care about like it makes everyone work 10x better only fools return to office. Shit like that. Shit people can use. The ghouls don’t give a flying fuck if we are happy or not, eat better, sleep better. They want metrics that show if workers can produce more or not for same wages and same hours. Period.

    Who is this study even for, who commissioned it.

      Even when presented with the numbers they don’t care. Management told us, going from 2 days in the office to full WFH increased our productivity by 15%, they’re still forced to make us go back 3 days a week (so more than before COVID) and they told us that a reduction in productivity is expected.

        When IBM senior management was asked by a staff member for data supporting their RTO policy one of the managers literally said, “I’ve managed teams before. I don’t need data.”

      Your statement is very absolutist therefore it cannot be true.

      Personally I did WFH for 4 years as a contractor and now I am back to office, but not always for forced to be in only 50% and I much prefer it, to the extent that I am doing more than 50% in the office.

      I still have the option to just not go in if I don’t feel like it, I am a bit under the weather or just haven’t slept well or have stuff to take care of and I don’t go in on fridays because traffic coming out of the city those days is horrendous.

      I would probably quit if I had to dogmatically go in everyday no matter what.
