Our employer is moving offices soon (just down the road) and my manager recently gleefully announced that he had "good news" and that we "would remain a hybrid team after the move"
Everyone on the team looked at one another awkwardly. It had never been discussed that anything else was a possibility.
The problem is even though all jobs are being advertised as "hybrid" or WFH 3 days a week, the contracts don't reflect that. They all stage your place of work is the office.
Now if my manager complains I'm late, I point out that I have a 45-50 minute commute with trains that come only every 20 minutes with very few backup options. 2 cancellations and I'm 40 minutes late. Tough. Either let me work from home full time, pay me more so I can live closer to the office, or be more flexible.
