Haha, I saw the Gritty part of last commercial before but didn't see the beginning. Pretty funny play on WFH.
Are CAN companies forcing RTO as much as US companies are?
Government RTO is in place or at least to be 5 days a week by the new year.
Companies seem to be following suit. My company has a 2 days a week for employees and 5 days a week for management. I can see it ramping up to 5 days for everyone, but space is an issue since they didn't renew lease in other building. I currently have an exemption so still working full time from home (my mom's). My client is in Quebec City, so I'd be working remotely anyways. If I had to go to the office, I'd bring my client laptop and leave my company laptop at home as strange as that sounds. No way I'm lugging two laptops and power adapters back and forth.
Big bonus WHF is sleeping in later in morning, if not feeling 100%, easier to get work done and take a lunch time nap.
Ha, okay, so I was going to say the WFH commercial was a little tone deaf but then remembered I was watch a CAN channel so maybe a different context. Buuuuut, it sounds likes it's kinda tone deaf north of the border too.
Yeah, there are definitely days that if I had to go to the office I'd be calling in sick, but from home it's doable at 80% capacity.
We're still at 2-days a week (3 for managers) and at least we're all physically in the same office. We do still give people the flexibility to WFH on 'light' sick days. The benefits are great: a lot less germ transmission.
