2 mandatory office days even for consultants. If you want to be at the office, fine. But don't make everyone be because of some so-called fairness. Catering to some imaginary average person isn't fair, it's hurting everyone a little or a lot. Alas since I'm working via an agency, I got to follow client directives. Luckily I have good rapport with both my agency and my project team lead so I can kinda toe the line.
Also the inability or rather unwillingness of my fellow devs to follow protocol. Ticket not approved by business? You don't touch it. Yet the geniuses I work with went total yolo mode on a project I'm not on. So I wasn't there to remind them and now they're upset they got told off they spent a week on tickets that they were asked to discuss with the business. And that they aren't getting praise for their efficiency. It's government work, not your hobby project. That's a week of budget spent on work they may need to reverse because they didn't even put it on a branch. Maybe when they hear it from higher up they'll listen because I really get the impression when it comes from me it is seen as my personal opinion. No, I just figured out early how the office politics work and play the game I'm paid for. I voice my opinion plenty but here it actually aligns with the organisation expectations.
