Hell yeah, we can be a family up until the moment their automated performance tracking software flags me and I get let go!

Have you noticed that those who come out hardest against RTO - or any change/revision that doesn't fit their desires - use the same, unbending absolute arguments they claim to be fighting? Like anyone who (gasp!) might want to work in the office is a slacker, there to shoot the shit and at the whim of useless managers and executives who just count asses in seats?

  I don't think that's what they're saying, they're saying that they don't want to be forced to come back to the office because they don't like it because some percentage of the people there are there just to shoot the shit. That doesn't imply that everyone who comes to the office is there to slack off.

  If you select the people who come out hardest against RTO, as opposed to the median, or mean, then … you would expect this behavior, no? You sure you picked the right example category to service your point?

  > the same, unbending absolute arguments they claim to be fighting Both sides are absolutely doing this. It's like the concept of multiple equilibria has temporarily left the zeitgeist.

Totally true. A company and its leadership are free to set the rules and expectations. It’s their company, not yours. You (we) might not fit in a new iteration of “their” company Also, in exchange for the strong compensation and benefits that I believe lots of us in finance, tech, etc enjoy - we might have to give acquiesce back on some things.
