[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do we have to go back to the old way of doing things if there are new and improved ways of doing so? For everyone who's saying we used to go in 5 days a week and we had to find childcare, etc- that's right. We did, including me.  But needs and technology have evolved so if there's a better way that includes a healthier work-life balance and checks and balances to ensure work is being done, it just seems like a win-win to me. Keeps cars off the roads for people who do have to work in-person 100%, saves the government money in terms of leases/utility bills/transit subsidies, and makes for happier employees.

[b]Seems like people just don't want others to have better circumstances than they did [/b](just like when the government went to paid family leave- I scraped together enough leave and also had to take unpaid leave for my kids, but I am happy for the feds who get paid leave).

Signed- a fed with teens who doesn't begrudge anyone having a good work-life balance.

Why aren’t these posters insisting we all hand wash laundry and give birth without an epidural. That is how things used to be done! Mothers before us struggled so we should too right?[/quote]

No, it’s the whining.  Look parents have a lot of benefits now I didn’t have.  Like free parental leave - I had to use my own leave.  But I don’t begrudge them that.  Or other benefits.

But it’s the “oh it’ll be just impossible for me to RTO” that is making all Feds look bad.

Did you see the CNN story a week or two ago with some Feds claiming PTSD about possibly having to return to the office?  That was shameful.  [/quote]I-95 does indeed cause PTSD, a form of road shock. [/quote]
