[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Weird. I’m seeing more articles like this one about how RTO has stalled https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-return-to-the-office-has-stalled-e0af9741[/quote]

Not because employers don’t want it.

I just laugh at the suggestion that workers are more “productive“ at home. We all know that is not why workers want to work remotely. This is an anonymous forum.  Why can’t you just admit it?  You want to work remotely because it is easier for you and easier for childcare. Not because you think it’s more productive.  You don’t care about productivity at all.  [/quote]

The real case for WFH vs RTO is that different people in different jobs should be provided flexibility appropriate to the situation. The uniform-RTO-crowd can’t wrap their heads around this, and your screed makes my case. I have adult children and a 2+hour/day commute. I am [i]absolutely[/i] more productive at home. So are my colleagues who are mostly in the same boat (our office of feds has an average age of late 50s and we don’t live in DC).  Yes, I want WFH since it’s tons more convenient for me, and I am more productive for my agency. It’s win-win if I stay remote. [/quote]
