What a luxury.23·3 months agoThis would be an upgrade to the open office hell I am currently in with no assigned seating and only built out to support 70% of workers assigned to the building. Parking is only able to hold about 40%. If you get in too late first you struggle to find a place to park only to park on the street a half mile away then you can’t find a seat. Oh, and they track badge-ins as well as the times your computer is on the local network. If your computer isn’t logged in long enough you get in trouble. This same company treated us like adults for many years before the RTO Mind Virus creeped into our executives brains. Many of my colleagues were fully remote going back to the early 90s.
It makes no sense. If the wanted to lose people it would be cheaper to just fire us and pay severance than to have a bunch of unmotivated employees giving no fucks about the work and screwing things up left and right. I’ve never seen the workplace so miserable and I hear similar stories from people at other companies as well.

I refuse to believe that anything approaching half of voting-age Americans support this. Unfortunately, here we are.
I got this. For those that don’t, search about reiserfs and the author’s criminal history.
