Well, we're getting back to that anyway... they're pretty much demanding that we all drive 45 minutes to sit at a hoteling spot that we reserved ahead of time in a noisy open office so that we can get on zoom calls with our remote coworkers all day (and be asked to "please mute because your background noise is very distracting") - and then drive home and still be available "after hours".
Glad I spent years of my life getting an advanced degree for this, I guess.
- ghaff 3y agoWell, some people are. I've just gone into the office when it made sense for a couple decades now. It does make sense to go in most days for people doing certain types of work, e.g. when they need access to equipment, but one of the (few) positive outcomes to the pandemic that I see is that a lot of routine meetings now default to virtual at least in my circles.
