So, you're going to continue to increase climate change, rather than just using a zoom call. GOD DAMN CEOS!!! Why the hell is return to office so important to you assholes??? Just do a god damned video call!

Yeah the cubicle farm that smells like farts and microwaved fish is integral to a good days work!

Cubicles? You mean open plan office space for better collaboration!

A zoom call has the possibility of being recorded. I'm 90% sure at this point all these execs insist on in person meetings is so they can plan and discuss illegal and unethical shit without worry.

I'm only in middle management and I know I feel the difference in the way I talk about things on zoom calls VS in person.

You could also record an in person meeting.
Zoom tells participants if the are being recorded by the zoom app.

I think these people just get off on having their fiefdom and serfs in person before them to pander and be sycophants.

You can record a zoom meeting easily with obs. Same for teams. I know, I've done it.

Self-preservation. If they stay at home for too long, they'll get sued for domestic violence.
