    RTO initiatives don’t just hurt taxpayers and the employees; it also clogs up the roadways and increases traffic incidents.

    Sure there are downsides to WFH, but they’re far outweighed by the downsides of WFO.

    This is SO FUCKING STUPID!

    For those whose work activities support it, working from home (or staff-driven hybrid) results in the same or better productivity and better mental health outcomes.

    Back to the office directives are created for a number of reasons, all of them terrible.

    • Insecure managers can micromanage their staff
    • Insecure executives can survey/show off their ‘empire’
    • Unhappy decision makers can keep other people from being happy

    Fuck this.
