There are a lot of news articles about “back to the office”, but they recirculate the same bad ideas. Let’s provide some new ideas for the media to circulate. It may also have the effect of making the office less terrible.
I would like my work computer to do Windows updates lightning quick in the office. It currently takes weeks, in or out of the office. Stopping in for a day makes no difference, so there is no point. Now, if there was a point, I would go in.
What would get you in the office?
Employers generally pay employees to do things that they can’t or don’t want to do. We work (doing things we don’t necessarily want to do) simply because it makes us money.
So yeah, want people to return to the office? That better come with a big offer attached or no dice.
