  • Well. Out workers are remote. What the hell do we do with the office?
  • Eeerrrrr. Ok let people have fun.
  • But we are starting to need ways of saving costs. What do we do?
  • The plan was always to return to office.
  • Let's do that, then.

Typical corporate.

Upper manager goal is Y (not using the letter before it anymore thanks to dippy boy). But we're Y -3% this quarter

Solution? Treat workers like shit until it's Y. Doesn't matter if it makes them unhappy, they leave, or next year's results suck. Now now now
