It can wait all it wants but little old me will die before I go back to working in an office.

Absolutely. I told my boss I would just drag out the firing process and leave anyway if I was forced to RTO

I left my last job because they mandated two days in office every month. They said it was to “promote team unity”. I kindly pointed out that: 1.) They renewed office space leases during COVID lockdowns and clearly didn’t want to pay for space that wasn’t being used. 2.) Every other person on my team was on the opposite coast as me. 3.) And finally I pointed out the recent offshoring of services, back office and customer facing, clearly showed my position would get the axe sooner than later, I was back office.
They really didn’t like that.

Yeah I left my last gig because they tried to mandate it, the only office I could in had 11 people in a boring ass building 53 miles from my house. Also I can’t have conversations with the people in the office because of an FTC agreement to not share data between two merged companies. So I could show up and not speak to a single person and sit on Microsoft Teams all day with people around the country.
