ou tech guys have reading comprehension issues. I said the prima-donnas are the ones who threaten to quit if “forced” to work from the office a couple times a week. Think their skills are so unique, rare and irreplaceable that they can get any job they want. I see a lot of this attitude lately and it reminds me of the late 90s when engineers were hopping between multiple startups every few months chasing higher salary and stock options. Until the shit hit the fan.
Sure most employees would prefer to work at home in their pijamas all day, save gas, avoid rush hour traffic, jerk off during lunch break, etc. But the fact is corporate management is not in favor of that because they know it is not the most productive situation. That’s why they are calling their employees back to the office now that Covid is over. You guys can whine about it all you want, but it isn’t going to change the fact that fully remote work is going to be the exception, not the norm, going forward.
I guess I’m not cut out for tech, I seldom wait for lunch to jerk off and I wear sweats, not pajama’s. Mgmt tends to be conservative in that it fears that someone, somewhere is having more fun than them. If you’re following the actual trends in tech for the most part remote work is here to stay. At the beginning of the pandemic, most jobs said, “remote for now.” After a year most were, “occassional office time.” Now the solid majority are full remote or mostly remote. Once you build a culture that deals well with it, your company can hire and fire wherever it wants. It’s a competitive perk for both sides and that is why I seriously doubt it’s going away.
