- LinuxBender 4y agoBold move. The way I've seen companies skirt this is to have inflatable mattresses and sleeping bags in a closet for the critical or catastrophic outages that may require people working long hours. I am not against this, as driving home after crazy long hours is dangerous. This allows the room to still be used primarily for official business use.

- h2odragon 4y ago"re-purposing idle office space" was a good thing last year, no? When "work from home" was gonna be permanent and we all needed to host a bit of our employers workspace in our homes at our expense? Surely no other offices in the area have similar affordances for the employees, right? So there's no need for a more general enforcement of these rules, just to make sure it doesn't appear as if a city is taking action for nothing but political theater.
- dekhn 4y agoWhen Google puts in official sleeping places (they had sleep pods as well as some rooms) they would ensure they were up to code. The point is that there eventually will be a fire or some other problem and by complying with code you're going to be considered slightly less irresponsible for letting your employees get toasted.
