So people will know in which company building you're in? Who gives a shit lol
The problem is they'll know when your not in a company building. So people can't WFH even though their boss isn't watching them at the office anyway.
That sounds like an issue with the the arrangement between the employee and employer to me.
Yeah, but not everyone has the flexibility to just hop to a different job the second their current one becomes unsatisfactory. Some people have to make do with what they've got.
It sounds like you are defending taking an in person job with the intent to deceive your employer by working at home. Because I still fail to see a circumstance where it would be a problem unless the employee is trying to be deceitful to work from someplace unauthorized.
If there's no reason for them to need to be in the office other than that their middle managers don't know how to do their job remotely then you're damn right I'm defending it. If you need a teams notification to know your reports aren't working from the office then it means they've been getting their work done from home and there's no reason they need to be there. Many places went WFH during Covid and are now dragging their workers back to the office needlessly. Stop bootlicking for corpos.
If you're outright refusing company rules like that then yeah you sorta run the risk of justifiable sacked lol
It's not refusing so much as taking advantage of a grey area. The work is still getting done.
It's not very grey if they've been told to get into the office and they aren't doing that
It's grey if their boss can't tell if they're there or not without a Teams notification. Stupid rules are meant to be ignored.
So it's grey the same way speed limits are? I dunno man, it seems pretty clear cut to me
Well speeding can arguably make driving more dangerous so not really the same thing. No one is being hurt by people doing the job they can easily do from home, from home. If anything danger is reduced because they're spending less time on the roads. Stop bootlicking.
I don't give a shit if you're breaking your company's orders or rules. I just think it's silly to pretend like it's a grey area
