80% of bosses say they regret earlier return-to-office plans: ‘A lot of executives have egg on their faces’::As some business leaders accept hybrid work as a permanent reality, others are backtracking on earlier pledges to let employees work from home.
Regret how they went about implementing back to work.
I have never heard the expression and am now wondering if the executives faces are covered in raw egg? Is it scrambled? Sunny side up? The German doesn’t know.
dont over think it. visualize someone with a raw uncooked yoke broken over their face…they look stupid.
its an older meme from before the internet but, it still clears port authority on occasion.
don't over think it
If German engineers are anything to go by, you’re asking the wrong person to buy over think!
I misread “sunny” as “scummy” at first
They should have donkey shit and goat pee on their faces.
80% of bosses regret their initial return-to-office decisions and say they would have approached their plans differently if they had a better understanding of employees’ office attendance, their usage of office amenities and other related factors
In other words, if they’d tried, even just a little, to actually do their jobs.
Bunch of clowns.
I’ve never really accepted the theory that return to office pushes are driven by office maintenance costs, or whatever. Hell, those expenses go UP when everyone is back. Working from home takes away electrical usage, and mitigates janitorial demand. If productivity is up or equal, and building maintenance costs are down, then wtf is it really about?
I’m surprised people in this comments section aren’t aware of the real estate mob. It’s the oligarchy who are pushing for return to offices. They have valuable investments in both big companies and the real estate, and they don’t want to see the values of their assets going down.
Somebody posted about this on lemmy a week or so ago. I’ll see if I can find it.
