Employees are spending the equivalent of a month's grocery bill on the return to the office–and growing more resentful than ever, new survey finds
Employees are spending the equivalent of a month's grocery bill on the return to the office–and growing more resentful than ever, new survey finds
The average employee returning to the office spends $561 per month–that's the average two-person household’s grocery bill in the U.S. for the entire month.

Can confirm. I have to be in the office way more now and everyone hates it. I work way less than I used to to recoup the misery of commuting.
Most people only have around 4 hours of highly productive work in them a day. The rest is just filler on an 8+ hour day when nothing much is accomplished. Or even worse, it's when errors are made that take away from productivity as they fix them.
Commuting sucks out of the highly productive time. So if someone commutes for 2 hours a day, that's 50% less productivity to the company.
For the managerial types out there. The old adage is completely wrong. Time is not money, productivity is money.
On the contrary, we have an employee out with Covid who has no more PTO. We’ve told them they can wfh, but they do about an hour of work per day. They might not return to the office ever. 😞
Dude, you're making someone work when they're probably pretty sick.
Why not just tell them to take the time they need to rest, and don't worry about the PTO?
No one's making you punish someone for being sick.

Sure sounds like you enforce them though.
When I got COVID, my boss told me to just rest until I was better and explicitly told me not to put in PTO because there's better things to use it for.
Sorry, but the way you're angry at someone for not being productive while sick makes me assume you're in the wrong here.
But I don’t enforce them. I’d prefer they didn’t work sick. The point I failed to make, by bringing up that on this occasion (of many) they are sick, was that not everyone is capable of working from home.
I will strive to proofread better in the future.
