There are a lot of news articles about “back to the office”, but they recirculate the same bad ideas. Let’s provide some new ideas for the media to circulate. It may also have the effect of making the office less terrible.

I would like my work computer to do Windows updates lightning quick in the office. It currently takes weeks, in or out of the office. Stopping in for a day makes no difference, so there is no point. Now, if there was a point, I would go in.

What would get you in the office?

    Agh, people I’ve talked to seem so reticent to understand that even outside the commute time I’m giving up my time to my employer. I don’t want to wake up at 5 to rush out the door to sit in traffic until 7:30 and do the same on the way home then still have to spend my own “free” time meal prepping and doing house chores that I can hopefully cram in before I have to go to bed and do it all again tomorrow.

    All of that is no longer “my” time because I would definitely be spending it differently if it weren’t for the expectations imposed on me by my employer. Try to tell people that and they look at me like I’ve sprouted a third eye
