[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have quite a few coworkers like OP. What they don't see is that we don't care if she leaves. We're sick of picking up the slack and making it unfair to the rest of us. FMLA is one thing, but constant battles over not working because they can't telework 5 days a week? Just stop. Get a new job already.[/quote]

Isn't it easier for their coworkers to have them telework 5 days and actually do their work than to come in and leave early (as OP described) or take FMLA (many employers do not hire a temp and just redistribute work loads)? She said the job was remote during the pandemic and allows telework once a week, so it's not like they don't have the capacity for it.[/quote]

Everyone who I know that's in a rage over lack of remote work is actually NOT doing their work. They think they are. But instead we're relying on other people since we can't ever get ahold of them. They don't get called into last minute meetings like the rest of us and people aren't relying on them for their expertise... people just aren't relying on them to the same extent that they rely on in person people. OP likely will say "good- I can finally get my job done in peace!" but the job wasn't ever that they do one solitary thing. A lot of the job is teamwork. [/quote]
