alt Hacker NewsI mean employees pushing for remote work is a status and power play, too. I’d imagine self-centered employees don’t like being told where to work either.
Office work isn’t objectively bad and remote work isn’t objectively good.
If you like one and dislike the other, shocker you’re going to find fault with the other side’s reasoning.
I can only speak for myself, and I wouldn't necessarily describe myself as self-centered - except maybe for the fact that I resent two hours of my time being taken from me every time I have to go to the office, and not even getting any money for it. And being told to work 3 and soon 5 days from the office after it has been proven that home office works just as well feels like turning back the clock. Yes, that's an exercise the whole US administration is currently very excited about, but I don't even live in the US!
