My work literally has people in the cafeteria and food courts with their laptops because we don’t have enough seats for everyone.

We are getting ready to have to RTO next week. Buy every single person on my team was hired after the company went fully remote and only 4 of us out of 14 are near an office to return to. So, we get to drive in rush hour traffic there and back, not have enough seats/monitors and may not get to be near pur team members that ARE there, and still have to be on Teams calls all day because the majority of our team is is spread out across the country and internationally. They won’t even have the cafeteria operational yet, nor is it big enough to seat everyone. They will have one coffee shop that “serves lunch items”, but we’ll have ~1000 people in the building trying to get lunch and i’ve never see a coffee shop serve more than one or two sandwiches a minute. So…
Also, the nice thing is that they pulled back the original 4 day in office requirement to only 2 days. However, the only reason for that is because they realized they literally cannot get everyone in the building at once and it’s not even close. So, I’m not filled with confidence on the logistics of this.

The executive: “yeah yeah, I made 1000 peoples lives more miserable, but at least I get to keep my job.”
Fucking useless…

At my workplace, executives get bonuses for how well they implement RTO. It’s written in their performance agreements. Guess who has all the RTO exemptions?

Our cafeteria is just a big room with chairs. The food court that was next to it has since gone bankrupt during COVID and all the storefronts are empty. It’s a giant Teams call zoo.

That will help foster a sense of community and teamwork. Thank you for your attention. Please return to your cafeteria seat.

It’s funny because I know you don’t work at my company but those are word for word the messages we get constantly as we continue to lose IT people and specialists

PS. We’ve been receiving noise complaints from employees with offices near the cafeteria, outside of lunch hours. Please keep the noise in that area to a minimum out of respect for your peers.
