Anyone else holding on to WFH for dear life?
Post Body

Managers and Senior Managers are starting to come in ā€œonce a weekā€ but Iā€™m not biting. I live at least an hour away from the office and Iā€™m not about to add 2 hours to my workday any time soon. Anyone else?

I will hold out! We will not be forced back into the office especially with how much gas costs!!!

at worst, one day a week would be the dream. If not, probably a new job would suffice.

Not everyone can afford to live close to downtownā€¦

I agree but donā€™t force those who donā€™t like going to the office to come back. It isnā€™t necessary.

More power to you!

donā€™t even get me started about work clothes. i am very annoyed by the disparity between corp america and tech america that weā€™re still lagging behind times with the dress code. Iā€™d be much more open to working at the office with a more relaxed code.

But how about their newly signed 20/30 year commercial leases? How about their investment in a new building? How about their newly hired barista? How can they justify that

Yes I agree that the earlier in your career the more beneficial it is to go in person, but effectively in this economy going back to the office is arguably a paycut nobody asked for.

The 10 minutes part is what makes it worth it. It takes me 10 mins to get from my bed to my desk. So if I had your commute, Iā€™d do it too.

That MPG is brutal. I get 26 and I still complain. I definitely have a better WFH setup with a nice desk and chair combo

Wish I had this kind of gutsiness to offer ultimatums lol best of luck

Crazy, stay warm over there my friend.

Agreed. This is the very reason why I donā€™t want to give in to this one day a week.

Man the KoolAid is oozing not only in your comment but the username

As long as traffic isnā€™t bad, I think thatā€™s doable.

[not loaded or deleted]

chalk that up to covid restrictions i guess

[not loaded or deleted]

Iā€™m definitely arguing against going to work by telling them itā€™s effectively a pay cut in this economy

Real world as in high gas prices and traffic jams just to do the same thing at the office?
