    Ugh I really want to out the company I work at. Of all companies we should be going and advocating for remote.

    But we aren’t. ‘Because being with each is SO valuable’.

      $100 says you’re company is either stuck in a lease with their building or owns it outright…so glad I work for a WFH company that started that way 20 years ago and never went to having offices.

        Lol no I wish!

        I swear to god we just had all our leases expire and chose to renew ALL OF THEMMMM.

        In fact, for the main office we’ve just signed a new multi-year lease in a new building. It’s smaller tho. Renovations currently in progress.

        But no raises. Times are too tough.

        But why exactly would that mean “no WFH”?

        Stuck in a lease? Its not like if people WFH or W in the office the lease would decrease. On the contrary. less people means less bills to pay. (Same for owning the building), in this case just rent it for something else.

          I’m not saying it makes sense, it’s just old school idiots running these companies who think ass in chair is more productive. They’re just sociopath control freaks.
