Joe Doakes from Como Park emails:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Two years ago, no one could work from home. Everyone had to come to the office so managers could supervise employees to ensure quality customer service and high productivity.
Last year no one could come to the office. Everyone had to work from home to protect employees from the deadliest virus ever known. Without management supervising us, productivity actually went up.
Starting in November, everyone must work from home, and everyone must come to the office, half and half. It’s a “hybrid” which sounds smart and trendy but actually combines the worst of both worlds. We\u2019re doing it because . . . well, nobody really knows why, exactly. It just is. And since everyone is coming to the office but the deadly virus pandemic is still in effect, everyone must be vaccinated, even those who don’t want to work in the office, who are more productive working at home and who would prefer to continue working from home. Nope, must come to the office, must be vaccinated. And wear a mask plus move your desks six feet apart. But if we\u2019re vaccinated and the vaccine protects us, why wear masks\/social distance? If the vaccine doesn\u2019t protect us (and masks\/social distance weren\u2019t safe enough to protect us last year), why are we back in the office instead of working from home?
Business magazines are asking what lessons we learned from Covid. Improvements in efficiency, distance working, employee satisfaction . . . no, none of them. We have learned no lessons and have no intention of learning any. It\u2019s our way or the highway. Further proof that the whole thing was not a medical crisis, it was a political stunt.
