I guess this could just as easily be posted in an anti-work community

    There’s a guy at my company that lives in Sacramento, and commutes twice a week to go in the office in mountain view. That’s a 4 hour commute with no traffic.

    His entire team is in the San diego office. There’s literally zero point, but I guess his manager isn’t willing or capable of fighting for an exception to the hybrid mandate.

      A friend of mine works for amazon (well, worked). He was fully remote. He moved from seattle to chicago.

      Then they told everyone to go back to the office, lol.

        This happened to me although I don’t work for Amazon.

        I have great fun telling them I don’t even live on the same continent anymore. Somehow they thought it was my fault, despite the fact that they said that it was fully remote.
