Technically, I’m allowed to be fully remote. This is the direction both he and his director gave our team. Suddenly, he is trying to force me to not only work from the office, but requiring I work from my desk specifically. Therefore, I’m not able to work from the office patio or anywhere around the office. To my knowledge, this is still optional for my counterpart.
Is he allowed to do this??? It feels absolutely INSANE.
*He’s only doing it to retaliate against me as he knows I enjoy working from cafes. He’s grasping as straws to be able to fully control me in the strangest way, but the retaliation concern is a whole other [much bigger] issue I’m not going to get into at this time.
