Will RTO settle?
What happens next year or in two years? Will the bank eventually care a little less or still fire people for not complying?
End of year 60%??
1st three months of year I hit under 60%. One month was very bad due to sickness and school closings due to bad weather, 3 kids out of school for 10 days su-ked. Should I make up extra days to balance out so EOY percent is at the 60% goal? Really... — read more

Promotions totally rigged at the bank.
Look at people are getting promoted, first of all they don't make it public, most of them are not at all competent.
Even free pizza couldn't bring people into the office today.
Today at the office in Tempe they were going to have a pizza party for the upcoming conversion and everyone both in office and remote declined attending. It is kinda sad and funny.
With benefits shrinking and promotions rigged, why even try?
What's the point of giving anything beyond the minimum?

July 26: Adjusted Possible working days should be 22 NOT 23 (Independence day)
The July total possible working days appear to be overstated. With Independence Day observed on 07/03/26, the total should be 22 working days; however, it is currently posted as 23. This discrepancy suggests that U.S. Bank may no longer be observing... — read more
