Too bad the folks in charge don’t care about your happiness.
The assumption is that if you have time to be happy, you have time to work more so happiness needs to be stamped out to increase productivity. That’s of course a myth as data shows happy workers are more productive. The result is workers stuck in the twilight zone of not being happy and not getting more work done. It’s one of the business religious beliefs.
This is exactly it. It’s a delicate balance that needs to be struck.
We always could’ve had more at the expense of our rulers. Since we’re collectively willing to accept less, that’s what we get.
It should really put into perspective how damaging class traitors are. They actively lower standards for the rest of us.
I’ve reported directly to the head before. Here’s why they don’t like remote work. These bosses are typically highly narcissist paired with paranoia.
I think many CEOs thinks like Trump, so let’s work off that. They have narcissism and paranoia. They are highly insecure. They assume the worst and others, but have ridiculously high expectations.
Trump can’t fathom people doing the right thing for the sake of it. He has never done a thing that didn’t benefit him. He can’t imagine not cheating someone given a chance. He’s cheated every single time.
My CEO was highly paranoid. He decided to setup cameras anywhere. He started confronting employees who left early or arrived later not understanding that everybody doesn’t arrive or leave the office at the same time. Even though the company needed focus on the agenda, he spent most of his time stalking employees.
When I was confronted for leaving early, I had to explain that I’m still working while making a delivery on my way home, or that it’s okay for me to be late if the first thing I do when I wake up is to respond to urgent emails and make important calls. This resulted in retaliatory pay cuts, so I quit. Of course, the business could not afford to lose me, so now I do contract work for more than double per hour and found a new job that treats everyone a lot better.
These people are truly detached from reality. Their poisoned brains prevent them from understanding basic human nature. The only side of human nature they understand is how people bend over for money. They’re control freaks.
Keeping you in office means they have the ability to pressure you. Emotional manipulation through micro management or unreasonable expectations. They know that at home, they can’t see you squirm. At work, you’re not safe, but at home, you are.
It’s very sad the way things went for Narcissus. He just wanted to mind his own business, it’s not his fault he was so beautiful people couldn’t control themselves. Any person would get as grumpy as he was if they were in the same situation.
Why don’t they add in shit employers care about like it makes everyone work 10x better only fools return to office. Shit like that. Shit people can use. The ghouls don’t give a flying fuck if we are happy or not, eat better, sleep better. They want metrics that show if workers can produce more or not for same wages and same hours. Period.
Who is this study even for, who commissioned it.
Your statement is very absolutist therefore it cannot be true.
Personally I did WFH for 4 years as a contractor and now I am back to office, but not always for forced to be in only 50% and I much prefer it, to the extent that I am doing more than 50% in the office.
I still have the option to just not go in if I don’t feel like it, I am a bit under the weather or just haven’t slept well or have stuff to take care of and I don’t go in on fridays because traffic coming out of the city those days is horrendous.
I would probably quit if I had to dogmatically go in everyday no matter what.
Your statement is very absolutist therefore it cannot be true.
criticizes “absolutist” statement…with an absolute!
bold strategy, lmao!
