Capitalist, socialist, or whatever, you have to admit that this is an extremely stupid hill to die on.
What’s the companies’ obsessions with in person office work anyway? Most companies reported anywhere from no productivity loss to improved productivity once they got into the swing of WFH, and now they don’t have to buy or rent office spaces. More importantly, most workers report lower stress, better morale, and more free time due to not commuting (which also has the benefit of cutting down on emissions). Seems like a win-win for everyone.
It’s easier to unionize in person tbh so wouldn’t be too bothered by this.
