.webp?x=8 "Top Hat (kek) - Technically a top hat, shut up")
I'm amazed how entitled people can be sometimes. I remember during one meeting that we were talking about work from home, a guy asked the question if the free coffee and snacks that we got in the office can be reimbursed since we are working from home.
You can snark all you want - it's effectively a pay cut for working from home. That's part of the compensation. Are you for employers giving pay cuts to people who work from home?
Edit: it’s hilarious how folks are pro pay cut and giving their employer free rent.
Companies can stop shoveling money into offices and start putting some of that money into supporting their employees.
It would be a pittance in comparison. They really need to abandon the sunk costs those buildings represent.
Good. WFH is a scam if my house is small I must be compensated to give up space for work
Does your employer not offer the option to go back into the office?
Oh I never left but I think this is the newest way jobs are screwing over workers. They’re saving money on this and need to compensate for it
I am using one room in my 3 bedroom townhouse as the home office. I am paying $4500 per month for mortgage + electric usage for monitors, laptops and work stations. The combined cost (electricity + the hidden cost of office taking space) is at least $1000 per month.
EDIT: I am not pro-RTO. I personally still enjoying WFH even it means that working setup takes my personal space. I just want people to be aware that companies also save money by letting people WFH. No office leases, no electricity and maintenance worker etc.

You’re forgetting about the food and snacks. Many of these companies provided free breakfast, lunch and dinner. Plus as many snacks as you could eat. The employee’s food bill has sky rocketed. Especially since they can’t cook and have to door dash every meal.

By...removing our commute saving us time and money, allowing us to prep food at home saving time and money, by allowing people to live further from the office saving us time and money?

Way more room for funko pops though. An SF salary could buy a rural property big enough to have multiple rooms dedicated to pop display and storage.

Do these people think the second people worked from home for a few months the company just stopped paying the rent for the building? If they paid for everyone's rent it would cost them a lot more than an office building, but they're completely ignoring the fact their company still has a fricking office

They also don't understand that most corporate leases are at least 5-year duration, sometimes 10 years or more depending on the circumstances. They think everything like their annual residential leases because they're morons.

Whatever they're saving on office space/utilities they probably lose out on productivity. Work-from-homecels basically stop replying to emails after lunch at my company.

My company broke the lease and has stated there will not be an office going forward. They also don’t have to provide meals and snacks anymore. So, yeah, they’re saving a ton of money.

Remember when these same entitled whiners were constantly screeching about global warming? I guess that was just a fad to them and they aren't willing to make the slightest change to their lifestyle to cut back on emissions from commuting.
