RTO=rambling taking over
All I hear all day is lonely people rambling instead of working.
It’s not really about RTO anymore. ..
It’s about treating your workers like excr-ment and telling them (begging them practically) to leave if they don’t like it. It’s about urging managers to take an OHI survey to gauge the culture, and promising to share the results and then burying... — read more

Why Is This So Hard to Understand?
Some roles need to be in the office. Some people prefer the office. That’s fine, if that’s you, then go in. But for everyone else whose jobs don’t require face-to-face interaction or physical presence, the choice should be ours or our manager's... — read more
Badge Swipes don’t equal productivity and results

The upside of the downside of RTO
I've been back at full time office for almost 2.5 years. I saw the writing on the wall and decided to do 5 days even before that mandate came out. Loved the initial months of WFH but the days became longer and longer. I was averaging 53-55 hours per... — read more

End RTO Before It Destroys What’s Left of AT&T

Stankey is making a lot of money, but not for AT&T
Look at his business decisions, all to the determent of AT&T. Buy high, sell low. Who profits? Not AT&T shareholders. AT&T is the cow that is getting milked and the employees are blamed for not feeding the cow enough grain. Are you "living your... — read more
