Can someone explain why companies are forcing people to come back to the office? I have a job where I need to be there all day. There are a lot of jobs for people don't need to be there. And there are a lot of jobs were people are more efficient from home. And there are a lot of jobs where if your company is more efficient working from home and you did not need to own or rent a gigantic building, seems like everything would lead you towards work from home. So I wanted the reason they are trying to get people to go back to the office?

Commercial property owners are lobbying Congress to force RTO because their properties will lose value if people work from home.

Shortsighted local governments like RTO because it forces people to be stuck in a part of town where they are more likely to patronize local buisnesses.

What they all look past is the growing resentment not just for RTO, but this entire system where we sacrifice our time and dignity for the cred of our politicians and the moneynof our slave masters.

my organization rto'd very early on after the pandemic, and promptly lost 40% of their staff who retired. It's an old place, demographically. I can guarantee that everyone forced back in was refusing (and continues to refuse) to buy anything for lunch and brown-bags out of spite, especially given some dummies were stupid enough to claim that as the reason. Lots of eateries continuing to shut down in the area, and you know what? nobody cares. In attempting to "save" something, they've practically guaranteed its demise by pissing off an entire generation.
