Literally my first job out of college. We were hybrid, and the amount you had to come in was based on your seniority. Most days it was just me on an empty floor. “Meeting” people was doing shitheads favors so they wouldn’t have to come in to the office.

Ugly truth is that new people don't have the job security to just not come int the office despite being told to. I'm guilty of this.

I've been at my job for over 4 years as a senior level engineer. They've tried to tell me to come into the office so many times but all of us collectively go "nah". I go in for about 4 hours a week even tho they expect me to be in like 2 or 3 days a week.

It's kind of like drug tests. The company has policies cause they need to be compliant with federal laws but they know they'd lose people who can't be readily replaced if they ever actually did tests. They can't afford to shake that tree
