Who TF is using up an entire PTO day so they can sign off on a package when they are literally already home?
It takes me longer to take a shit than it does to sign for a package.
And It definitely takes Debra in Product Management longer to get to the point than it does for me to let a plumber in, and out.
This honestly doesn't sound like much flexibility at all. If you need time to take ahit - you use your 4 days of PTO. If the company needs time to take a shit on your head - you work late.
Sorry I mean in the new RTO mandate, that is what is now done. Not allowed to WFH for one of those days, to take care of a ~15 minute interruption. Now it costs a PTO day (and the resulting delays of business stuff by an employee off for a day, doing 0 work).
It absolutely is not flexible. And it will harm the business as a result.
Ah okay it makes sense now. Sorry read it wrong.
Yeah they shoot their own foot a bit
If they're going to be pedantic about every little penny, every second. Well... Two can play that game.
Sorry you're dealing with that.
Yep. Always comes back down to respect, 2way street, etc.
Indeed, malicious compliance is the game.
