Coffee badging is the practice of going into the office for a few hours to “show face,” which could entail coffee with co-workers or sitting in on a work meeting — but then leaving to work remotely.
Thanks, that’s all I wanted to know.
Just did this today, because I learned our departmental bonus is based on our attendance average. I don’t even mind going into work that much, because it’s a nice walk for me in the morning and evening. But if you’re gonna tie annual bonuses to it, you bet your ass I’m gonna cheese your stupid attendance metrics, because engineers are GREAT at maliciously complying to achieve stupid metrics. You pay me to solve problems for you. You do not pay me to warm a chair for you.
I’m so tired of old-school managers whose job is to just attend meetings tell me how being in a noisy office is more productive for my highly technical, focus-dependent work.
Sure, pal. Writing scientific code in a place where people attend meetings with their speakers on, and where there’s always the expectation of being interrupted at any time is better than working alone at home.
When someone feels like they have money in their pocket they usually feel pretty good. They chat with people and make plans to do fun stuff.
The bosses want motivated workers, but don’t want to pay for motivation.
Heh coffee badgers don’t give a fuck
If they don’t want me coffee badging then they can let me work from home. I’m so tired of being forced to waste gas on a commute just to attend zoom meetings in an open-plan office surrounded by other people who are also in zoom meetings.
Peak Zoom meeting! lol.
It’s much easier to search for a new job at your desk at home than an open floor office
Can I get the job of the person who comes up with these stupid phrases that could amuse me for about 5 mins
“Employees have become accustomed to the flexibility of working from home and may only come to the office when absolutely necessary,” said David Satterwhite, CEO of Chronus,
why the chicken fried fuck would anyone go to the office if it’s NOT “absolutely necessary”?? for fun? go fuck yourself, CEO of chronus

These weirdos want working to be a religious dedication, life is not all about work
Less interested in work - lmfao, No.
Less interested in toxic environments
Less interested in less and less pay
Less interested in non-growth
Less interested in the bullshit.
Because pay and promotions are in no way tied to your effort or productivity?
It comes out to how well you can present yourself in an interview for the next job. Your performance at the current job? Honestly, it doesn’t really matter that much.
Work does not pay enough to justify beyond bare minimum.

What’s the complaint here? Showing up for the community aspect everyone was crying about and then going home to work for the rest of the day is not enough to earn the bare minimum wages everyone is offering?
Shit pay for meaningless work while those in power do nothing about the existential threats facing our species seems like it should be sufficient explanation.
