Actually, government employees are like Verizon managers: ineffective, expendable, inarticulate & impractical

Job requirement - get back to it or find one where you can WFH.... it's ain't a Union or Liberal thing, it's a back to the office thing if your job requires it.

Government employees are like VZ Unioners. They need to be babysat and micro managed or nothing gets done.

“ report higher engagement levels”

What are engagement levels and how are they measured? I would bet a lot on this board didn’t support the administration that put out these figures. And if these numbers are true why did the department of labor no longer support WFH? We see the occasional posts from people who are so happy they left and got a better gig. Wonder how many qualified people who have been cut from the big tech firms would post how happy they now are.

I'm ready for everyone to RTO. People who are working from home full time aren't working as much as they claim.

Despite the RTO "Mob"...The White House Office of Personnel Management, employees who work remotely frequently report higher engagement levels — 77 percent versus 59 percent among primarily in-office workers. Moreover, 68 percent of frequent teleworkers say they plan to stay in their roles, compared to only 53 percent of their office-bound counterparts. These statistics highlight the critical role that flexibility plays in retaining talent and fostering long-term employee satisfaction.
Beyond retention and engagement, the benefits of telework extend to performance. More than 84 percent of federal employees and managers surveyed said telecommuting has improved both quality of work and customer satisfaction.

I think it's so funny that anyone cares that you have to return to the office. Its a job. Its what they said when they hired you. Get over it. You worried your not going to get your afternoon nap in or you have to hire a dog or babysitter? You can't work from home effectively with the distractions there. They PAY YOU! You don't pay them. So you'll do whatwver they want or leave. Give me a break.

All call center representatives need to RTO. You were hired to do so. Why pay you office rate when you work from home? Why would Verizon pay NY rate when they can get someone cheaper.
