Today was my day

Well, we officially got the notice today that we have to come back into the office twice a week starting next month. I’m pissed; mostly because the team I was just removed from is exempt from this policy. And not for any good reason (they told us it was because all of their work is online… but ALL of us work online). The real reason they were exempted from the new policy is because one of these employees lives 5 hours away and they needed to make an exception for her. Also, our office space doesn’t have enough space to accommodate the staff. When our director was asked how this will be addressed, their response was “you’re adults, you’ll figure it out.” Now I’m looking at a two hour commute plus an additional $800 for childcare, with no raise to offset my costs for having to return to an office.
