Microsoft said that employees who spend three or four days in the office have higher Thriving Scores — a metric that measures employee well-being.
Personally, when my company started forcing everyone back to office three days per week, I quit. I hated it so much. Because it affects my entire life.
I dont want my coworkers and bosses to be part of my life. I didnt pick them, I dont like some of them, and there is a huge feeling of hierarchy all the time. It sucks.
Full time traffic, long hours, and the inability to walk your dog when Joe pisses you off will, I’m fairly certain, eventually lead to violent mental breakdowns as people are no longer conditioned to the ridiculous lack of work-life balance.
It’s just layoffs.
