These return-to-office pushes are moronic. We've had three years of remote work without any loss of productivity. Tell us the real reason for the push to be in the office or get the fuck out of my face.

They're giving us bullshit reasons and look how mad people are about it.

The Canadian federal government has been pushing hybrid for about a year now. When it all started they hosted a town hall to answer questions and stuff. One of the directors told a story about how she is happy to go back to the office because she can go to her local Subway and support the business. This erupted into weeks of memes about how we're being forced to the office just to keep Subway in business.

I can't imagine the response to them outright saying they are doing this to please big businesses and landlords.
