[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My spouse works for Maryland state government and they were ordered back into the office 3 days a week like 2 years ago. I don't really get what the big deal is here. I guess 3 days would be better than 4, but I also think it's insane that there are people who haven't set foot in an office since March 2020. That was 4 years ago! It's crazy this took so long. If I was a DC employee who was required to work in person (teacher, police officer, public works employee, DMV, etc.) I'd have such immense scorn for the lazy middle managers parked on their butts in suburban home sending emails all day and never bothering to come into the office.[/quote]

But you are ok with middle managers parked on their butts in urban offices sending emails all day. [/quote]

you are wrong. DC had emplpyees in the office three days a week since 2021.  This new four day a week plan is strictly to support econ development because downtown is tanking and only gettng worse and the feds don't seem to be coming back anytime soon.  the mayor is out of ideas on how to creatively rethink downtown and she can't control the feds so this is her only plan of action.  Never mind that most DC employees don't even work downtown.  Other than folks at Wilson building, DC employees are scattered through out the city.[/quote]
