I am feverishly boiling over now that my cushy work from home insurance job now has a start date for going back into the office two days a week.
Inevitably, there will be some justification in some data point somewhere that this improves work output, and this will turn into a full five day work in the office gig again. (Debatable, very debatable.)
Loss of work life balance, increase in car maintenance, increase in gas usage; all for the sake of easy access to be micromanaged by someone who shouldn't have authority over even the most independent of house pets.
If this does anything for work output, the only output increasing for employees is the number of Indeed postings we look at and consider.
