    Haven’t read the article yet so just going by the blurb: control is absolutely an aspect of it. Some companies have made an effort to have in-house food and on-site childcare for similar reasons, not just for convenience. There was some boss on record in an investment speech saying they didn’t want workers to leave the building.

    As a full time WFH employee, I don’t know about this. I think it makes sense for some jobs, but having it as legislation seems weird. Some people like working in the office and want to work at a company with an in office culture.

    If like that. I’m on 3 days in, which means on a short week I just have to be in three days in a row, which is quickly exhausting.
