I live prohibitively far to be in the office everyday. My boss knew that when he hired me and the agreement was always that I am in office on an as-needed basis. Usually about 7 days out of the month.
My boss told me last week that he will be forcing me to go part time along with the associated pay cut because he no longer wants me to wfh. He said I’m “so much more productive in the office.”
It’s just patently untrue, although I doubt he’s actually looked at the numbers. I retain a high level of productivity regardless of location— according to our KPIs, I alone am as productive as everyone else combined.
It’s his business and it’s a right to work state, so he can do whatever he wants. He can cut the most productive person in his company for any reason or no reason at all. I’m just finding it frustrating that apparently this boomer has to see me sitting at my desk to think I’m doing a good job
Bums me out to look for a new job.
