Many company executives now regret their initial return-to-office plans, as 80% say they would have approached it differently if they understood employee preferences. While some firms are requiring more in-office time, citing collaboration needs, others are scaling back requirements due to retention issues. Successful companies like EY are listening to employees, addressing concerns over childcare and commuting, and seeing office attendance rise as a result. However, full office occupancy remains below pre-pandemic levels as hybrid work grows in popularity. It will take time for companies to settle on arrangements that satisfy both employees and management.
Honestly, I’m so sick and tired of seeing pieces on how WFH affects productivity and scare journalism about employees slacking off during remote work. I hate that the discussion revolves around productivity metrics and not the fucking human who is expected to do ever more with less for the sake of ‘making number go up.’ As if that’s the way this is supposed to be, working 60 hours a week just to barely get by so Bezos can have his five-hundred-million dollar yacht that’s so big they have to dismantle a bridge so it can pass. Like that’s not a hint that maybe people shouldn’t have that much wealth to throw at a floating palace.
Maybe it’s a good thing the Earth’s heating up. Fever kills viruses.
I might have misunderstood what you’re trying to imply, but unfortunately the bulk of people going to be displaced and killed by this “fever” are not the ones causing it.
I believe the implication is that humanity does not deserve to continue on.
I hope not, because I’d say that’s pretty unfair to all the cultures that understand that humans are just another part of the ecosystem around them.
Unfortunately climate change really doesn’t care about fairness. It just reacts to external inputs and then affects everyone, regardless of how much or little they have contributed to it.
I hope it’s not true too.
I don’t know what is deserved, but I’m pretty sure that there’s a lot of pain to come. There are a lot of people who won’t survive.
Makes me sad.
