[quote=Anonymous]We have experienced similar in our workplace. We bought tickets to a baseball game and had a pre-game happy hour in the office. The most junior employees couldn't be bothered to attend the happy hour (we didn't even ask them to work in the office that day!) and just met us at the game. I spend a lot of time thinking and reading on this topic and one interesting piece I read suggested that as a result of the pandemic/being remote is that work has become more transactional. People feel less like they are part of something and that the importance of belonging at work is fading. A transactional relationship with your employer means that you don't feel swayed by invitations to holiday parties, or extra days in the office, or working more hours than 40. You do your job and you go log out for the day. I'm a Gen X HR executive and I'm trying to change the way that I think about all of this. In my mind, you worked your a** off in your 20's to build up some capital so that when your life became more complicated you could attend to your personal obligations. There is a real shift happening.[/quote]
