Of all the industries trying to force people back into offices, the tech business might be the most absurd. Really just goes to show how silly it is. There is zero reason for me to be in an office to do my job.

Let's all go back to the office to get on Teams/Zoom calls.

That's exactly what my office does. We even have to clock in and out with an app that only activates when connected to the office wifi. Getting the hell out of here.

Wow they have you clocking in and out? What is this, McDonald's? Who does that?

Call centers, for sure.

You'd be surprised. It's a fintech firm.

That's not necessarily a bad thing. The European Court of Justice has ruled that all member countries must implement mandatory time tracking for employees as a means of protecting workers.
