THIS IS NOT MADE UP.
This should grab the attention of all of you who in various posts over the couple weeks have shared your "special" situation.
"...I don't have to do 5 days in the office"
"...my Boss knows about this and is fine with it..."
"...I go to my assigned location 2 times per week and the office that's closer the other 3 days..."
And people are refusing or seemingly unable to understand that the person you report to cannot not give you that dispensation or a "special" deal, and they cannot protect you whatsoever when you are eventually called on the carpet for non-compliance. They have zero authority or input in any of it.
So beware of your "special" deal that your Boss is "cool" with.
If you want/ need to stick around here, you just need to comply and wait for this nonsense to wane. Which it eventually will. Guaranteed. "When" is the only question.
