[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I believe we've seen an entire generation or two of Americans in big cities experience / discover an enormous shift in thinking about when, how, and why they work.  I own a small business and its impacting me because my employees, who are younger, see the world differently.  It's not going to be as easy as just sending out this memo and telling agency heads to make it happen.[/quote]

But it’s not just that. For people with families, it’s about schools, housing and commutes. I’m perfectly happy to work 9-5:30. I don’t want to commute 2 hrs/day just so my kid can be enrolled in a decent school in a house I can afford. If Zients wants us middle-level feds (the backbone of our agencies) to stay put he needs to also pay attention to schools and housing prices. But I bet he’d be horrified to have his precious SFH neighborhood upzoned for apartments. [/quote]. It’s not just Zients.  The politicians want to be re-elected.  State and local government workers are back in the office.  Different treatment for feds isn’t going to fly with voters.  [/quote]

I don’t think any voters are going one way or the other based on RTO policies.  This clearly has a lot more to do with federal leases of commercial properties and putting some REITS in peril by letting feds stay home.[/quote]

Oh, you are VERY mistaken.[/quote]

LOL what a convincing argument.[/quote]

You will see since many people cannot and will not tolerate the complete & disgusting hypocrisy of ignoring the environmental benefits of teleworking vs. RTO.  
Feds are po'ed and will vote that way.

LOL right back at you.[/quote]

Ok, so which presidential candidate should I vote for in 2024 who would let me maximize wfh as a fed?[/quote]

I don't know. 
Jump in your time machine and let me know who will be running and what their position is.
Right now, people will remember the environmental hypocrisy and decision to go with the $$ commercial real estate lobbyists are paying.[/quote]

Right now the front runners are Trump and Biden. Which one would be better on environmental issues? Which would be better to federal employees? If Trump loses to DeSantis do you think he’d be more of an environmentalist and pro civil servant?[/quote]

Saaaay..who is going to the 2025 Super bowl?
Right now the front runners are Philly and KC.

Psst, the answer is neither but one hypocritically poses to be for the environment.
That's my point.[/quote]
