Bosses and workers still can’t agree on whether the commute is part of the work day, and it’s creating a $578 billion productivity problem - Lemmy.world

It’s easy:

Are you requesting I as a worker dedicate any part of my time, and/or usage of my personal resources to accomplish something for YOUR business? Yes it’s part of the work day.

No, i am expecting you to be at your place of agreed work that you were well aware of, at a time we agreed as stipulated in your agreement that you were open to reject if it was not suitable for you.

Its not the employers job to tell you where to live, how to get to work, or what to spend you time doing outside of work hours. Don’t like the commute - pick a different job or move, you’re an adult who can make these decisions.

Better yet, start a business where you pay your employees this way.

Everyone at my work is complaining about the commute with RTO. I have a 15 minute bike ride to work on a secluded trail, I dont care
Aww good for you, here is a cookie… now you can ride off the calories on your way to work and feel more accomplished…
