Rant: Job is demanding I come back to office full time
Been remote for 3 years, kids are settled, wife and I got a good rhythm going. Company just announced everyone back in office 5 days a week starting next month. I have a 45 minute commute each way. That's 7.5 hours a week I'm not seeing my family. I'm not anti-office but why force it when my team is productive and everyone works better this way? Considering jumping ship but also terrified of the unknown. Anyone been in this spot? What did you do?
Man, I feel this one. I've been remote for two years now and the thought of going back full time makes me sick. Have you tried pushing back on it or looking for a hybrid compromise? Three years is a long time for the family to adjust to your schedule.
