Got an idea for next month's banner?
I saw something the other day in response to I think Amazon demanding workers work from office. If its so impossible to be productive working from home, then as soon as you walk out of the building at the end of the day, stop looking at your work phone, never reply to emails, don't answer the phone.*
*That's as it should be anyway, don't do free labour for your boss!
Tolls my boss as soon as I'm back In. No more 6 am or 9 pm calls. It's 9 to 5. Really suxs for all those international people in work with regularly In the early morning but I have to go in office for better cohesion or some bs such a shame.
I've found that level of work etiquette extremely uncommon in NZ
Naturally, and with this government we're not going to get Aussie style protections around work hours any time soon - but if your employer is going to say, you must be in office bc contract says so, the response should be ok well contract also says work hours are x-y thank you very much.
