Hey Boss -
Ever since TV remote was invented, you don't even walk up to the TV to change the channel - why the fuck you need to call us back to the office and breath over our necks? Unless you are a pervert (a lot of you indeed are) - you don't need to stare at our faces (or our asses) to assess our work, learn to embrace the zoom age !
You reportee (who is still hanging around because the pay is okay, I can work from home, and don't have to bear your shitface every morning)
I'm pretty sure nearly everyone who was WFH in my area had to return to the office because my morning commute went from 25-30m to 35-40m. Doesn't sound like much but the traffic has gotten so busy the long way is faster most mornings.
I spent about a year fully remote, and have been hybrid since the pandemic. I am happy!
They don’t know much about spyware then
More like how do they justify their jobs. Supervisors can't afford for employees to be judged on results. They need to have a system where they can look over shoulders else what good are the supervisors.
I’m just glad that so far my job has held at 2 days in office. It still sucks and I’m way less productive in office than I was when I was WFH full time, but it could be worse.
I think this issue does reflect on bad management. They don’t know how to monitor their team’s output, justify their existence or curb bad employees without being in the same room. That’s on them, not WFH.
If the work gets done, then congrats there are no problems
I work so much more efficiently at home. I'm mostly remote. Come in a couple days a month. The days I go in are trying to zone out all the office distractions. Also I have to use a hotel docking station setup that I will always have an problem with at least something about it. A sizeable portion of my day is just getting setup and into a work state. I work in software development with cloud platforms. Going into the office I know I'm gonna get fuck all done. Also the Internet is way worse on site.
However there is a few people on my team that do fuck all everyday. I keep hearing rumors that they are gonna make us come back. It's frustrating because you know the few ones that are taking advantage are gonna be an easy excuse for management to call us in.
