The Register · Shove your office mandates, people still prefer working from homeBy Paul Kunert

My thought is that I'm a lot more productive with a set number of tasks I want to get done in the day, not a set number of hours to sit at my desk. But the latter wins with managers because it's traditional.

And I like working from the office. It works for me, but I'm not here for bullshit reasons.

Employees are being marched back to the office. But why?

This article points out the obvious: forcing workers back into the office is not about productivity — it noticeably makes productivity worse and ruins morale. I think it's about workplace dynamics: egotistical managers with outdated ideas who want to feel important and have no regard for the individual needs of other people or their health as we head into five years of this pandemic.

Working from home with a #puppy is quite the adventure. We had a walk this morning, lots of potty breaks (she's doing very well at asking to go outside). I made her a frozen Kong, gave her one of her bones with pop in treats, and a dental chew. 2 hours later she's finally starting to crash. I also have to work in the living room bc she doesn't like being locked in my office with me 😅 #puppiesofmastodon #workfromhome #dogsofmastodon

“More than 80% of hybrid employees report being highly engaged at work, compared to 72% of on-site employees, and Stanford researchers found that hybrid work improves employee morale and boosts corporate profits. 

Many have pointed out that a sense of power and control are what’s behind the continued push to have employees in the office.”

Why are we still talking about return to office? - Fast Company apple.news/AsI9uzMKPTqS1diiluo

apple.newsWhy are we still talking about return to office? — Fast CompanyBosses have been trying to make employees return to the office for years now. Why are we still having the same conversation?

During Covid people discovered this amazing thing called work-life balance.

But corporate America still has a plantation mentality & is still deeply confused about the difference between employment, a contract for 8 hours of work for a set amount of pay, w/ slavery - being on call 24/7 & no control over work hours or family time.

So what did workers figure out? The only winning move is not to play.

#WorkFromHome full time would cut emissions significantly

"The survey found that government employees who #telework full time had “significantly less” #emissions associated with #transportation, potentially slashing them by more than 60 per cent. Those working from home full time saw an increase of energy use at home by less than 10 per cent and the emissions associated with the internet of telework were “negligible.”"
