So many roles can be fully remote. My job requires me I’m the office maybe 3 times a year. Why does that need to be hybrid?
The only ones pushing for this are the corporation’s bleeding out money in real estate rental costs.
When COVID hit and the lockdowns followed, I began working from home. They’ve asked for people to return to their offices and I’ve refused. I’m more productive at home and have a better work/life balance.
If it’s all about real estate costs, we’ll return to remote when leases are up. Do you think that’ll happen? Not a chance.
At this point, you are already in an hybrid situation: why do you think that "hybrid" only means "x days a week" and maybe not something like "every time I need" (be it 3 days a week or 3 days a year) ?
