I know RTO is being pushed heavily but I read a piece recently that talked about how some companies are only being strict about the policy to the so-called 'low performers' of the company and the star performers are being exempt from the mandate. I think it's pretty unfair because not everyone gets the chance to 'exceed' in their career with an equal chance... simply because of what they're stuck doing in a company as compared to others. What are your thoughts on this? Do you face this at work?

What IS sad is that you could have Googled the story in five seconds. But instead you spent DAYS coming back here constantly with the same snarky attitude that you claim to dislike

I an not as bothered about this. Before Covid, it was common for people with proven performance and the ability to work independently to be given perks like being allowed to work from home or hybrid. I view that as just a version of that, "we will trust you to WFH because you have proven you can do it."

What concerns me more is companies who allow Leadership to WFT while demanding RTO for the rest of the staff. My previous company began mandating RTO, but our entire C and E suite all work remotely, and the rule didn't apply to them. I've heard the same from other people/companies as well. It is incredibly tone deaf for a CEO to justify RTO as good for the company while they work from home.

People with dogs: how did you get your dog used to city life? My dog is almost a year and half now (having lived the past ~5 months in the city) and he is terrified of the city. We used to live in the suburbs so much more quiet and low key. The cars going by, sudden sounds, bikes/scooters are a huge stressor, but more than anything it’s people - if he sees anyone walking or around him he panics and tries to flee. I can’t afford to send him to an expensive dog trainer and don’t know what to do :/

I don't like my job, the responsibilities and tasks aren't right for me or my lifestyle.

Key positives for my current employer are pay and security. But my new role within the company isn't working for me, and ultimately I don't think it is for the company either.

A much much smaller (20 people) company offered me a role.

With the global economic situation as is, is it worth the risk to change to a job I know i'd like more with less pay, and potentially less job security?

T.I.A.

I haven’t heard from her and it’s been 24 hours - starting to get worried. What should I do? Does this mean they’re not interested?
