[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it just mind boggling that people here think they are entitled to work from home AND not be on camera. If my boss has her camera on, mine is also on. [/quote]

Ditto. I am part of a team of 13. We have a monthly Zoom meeting led by the head of our department who is in a different building. It would be unheard of for someone to turn their camera off. (And I say this as an introverted socially anxious millennial.) We are all full time in office- I have never worked remotely, even during Covid (well, as of this past January, we get two remote days a month.), and it is bizarre to image a work culture like this. If everyone turned their cameras off, I'm sure I would too - then I could surf the internet or fold some laundry while I stayed on the call. I get why employees like it. But it is so disrespectful and unprofessional, [b]and it cannot be healthy for society to be isolated like this from each other.[/b][/quote]

You are so right. My next door is a fed who recently started going back to the office. She has been fully remote since covid. The amount of anxiety this produced in her is uncanny. Mostly because now she has to be around people. She admits that she lost so many social skills being so isolated and is actually glad in a way she has to get out of the house. [/quote]

I'm sure your neighbor is a real person. [/quote]

I know it's hard to imagine, but just try. Not everyone is as miserable as you.[/quote]

I'm not doubting that making up stories about feds is making you happy. [/quote]

I'm not doubting at all that you need to call me a liar because you are super dumb and can't find another way to articulate your points.[/quote]
