You mean they’ll actually have to get some work done for a change?

[mikey_hates_everything]

No, it wasn’t. But we didn’t have Zoom or Teams or Office 365 or Virtual workstations before all that. Unless those go away now, which there is no sign of that happening, I want more of my life back. Those things, in addition to having to show up for 40 hrs/week, are far too intrusive now.

Can’t help thinking Musk is using this as a way of reducing headcount through voluntary separation without having to pay severance. He can always ch#nge the policy later.

Here too. I've been working from home since 2015, along with most of my several hundred fellow employees. I've put in all the time I intend to fighting traffic to get into an office.

If I was younger, and lived closer to HQ, then I would probably feel otherwise.

It could just be a stealth effort to force attrition. He’s going to allow for exceptions. And you can bet that those who aren’t top performers won’t be approved. A lot of them will be out job hunting. But, how many of them will quickly find work?

He can get more to quit by requiring men not have a ponytail and men and women cannot have jewelry thru their nose or lips or tongue and no hair dyed weird colors and dress normal.

I'm not that big a fan of being in the office, but this is cool! Make. Them. Suffaaaaahhhhhhh!!!

Engrish is such a entertaining language.

The organization I work for still has remote work. Have come in two or three days a week. The small group I work in goes in everyday however.

I enjoyed working remotely during the lockdown — no need to commute or get dressed. If tired, I could take a nap, then resume.

Coming to work has its advantages also, and for me, is necessary, as I deal with the public and physically handle things. However, I would like the option to stay home and work remotely during inclement weather. Ever since I slipped on ice and broke my shoulder, I insisted on staying home until everything is cleared up.

That’s a fact.
