Going into an office is a waste of time and money if it’s not necessary, which, in many cases, it’s not. It robs employees of time by forcing them to commute to an office, it drives up real estate prices in urban areas where offices are located, it limits hiring options to only those folks willing and able to live near the office, and it fuels the brain drain in rural areas away from these offices. The push to needlessly go back into offices is little more than a power play by poor managers.
Abused situation? If there is a problem it is most likely a management problem rather than employee problem. Managing remotely is not a skill some managers excel at and I believe it is their inability to adapt that is pressuring the drive to get employees back into the office. Companies or Federal offices that don’t offer at least hybrid schedules are going to lose talent.
Yes, I think it is now abused. Of course, there are exceptions even after the pandemic and they're acknowledging that dimension, but who wants to work in an office when they can stay home? What's next, stay-at-home military?
well there’s a ridiculous slippery slope if i’ve ever seen one.
How so... it's ok for others, just not me. The party is over.
Right, who wants to work in an office if work can be done more efficiently and with less distractions at a home office. I have been working remotely for the last eight years I can work so much better home than in a bustling office. No commute saves me so much money and time. If I ever go back into an office I am going to need at least 20% more in salary/benefits to even consider an offer.
People that don't want to comply with 'company requirements' need to find another job(???), yes. The government doesn't need to provide loopholes for them to get around it.
In this case, isn’t the government the employer? Who can then set the requirements?
Employers need to set the requirements... isn't that what they're trying to do?
Yes, and if employees disagree they will leave. It seems the two parties disagree what those requirements should be. One sees the employees needs as priority and the other sees the employer’s as priority. Employers need employees, no?

Do you really not see the differences between military work and office work?
“Money’s worth” is measured in terms if output, which is measurable whether somebody is at an office or their house.
