No one wants to return to presenteeism or exploitation. Actually it's plain that the author does (at least as far as presenteeism goes), going by the title she chose. She's just being a bit wishy-washy about it. One company director I know was recently surprised, on trying to schedule a meeting with a junior employee, to be told that it clashed with his yoga session. Director needs to check company policy as to whether it allows flextime, and if it does (which presumably it does) -- back the fuck off. If the employee has flextime, then they have flextime -- end of discussion. At the same time, employee needs to be smart and tell his superior it wasn't a yoga session, but a chat with his doctor or something similar.
