@OP Sounds like they’re bringing back summer Fridays in a roundabout way.

I agree, but you do realize every day used to be mandatory, right?

Also the industry standard is 2-3 days in office/hybrid remote first.

Arrived at 9:30am today and couldn’t find an empty screen lol. It just makes no sense to RTO if you don’t have enough sufficient equipments to support your employee to function normally. (My day to day job needs a screen otherwise the platform won’t show in full)

Before COVID, when in-office work was mandatory 5 days a week, people would still be walking in at 10:00. No one cares when you get to your desk as long as you get your 8+ hours in.

My in-laws used to own a jewelry store, and they had this Omega quartz watch in their storage. I can understand why this wasn’t sold during their clearance sale lol. I had no idea Omega made stuff like this in 1987! I guess they couldn’t help it after the rise of quartz watches in the 70s to 80s. I doubt they’re worth anything even to this day. I see them on eBay for $700-1200, so who knows…

I've never worked on anything for TikTok and hope I never have to. TikTok is from hell. I was on it one time for about 10 minutes and could feel myself becoming mentally unwell in just those 10 minutes. The human brain is not designed to deal with the sheer amount of sensory overload that app gives you. I'm pretty sure TikTok is one of the main reasons we are constantly hearing about how much Gen Z struggles with mental health.
