    There are far too many things to even list. Too many good reasons for people to be in the office. It improves morale and professionalism and builds an exciting company culture. Whenever I visit the office, I tell hilarious jokes for my employees to laugh at for example. Every Thursday is a themed Thursday like NFL day or patriotic day where you have to wear red white and blue, and whoever has the best outfit for the themed Thursday wins a prize. Plus we take pictures of everyone who dressed up for the themed Thursday and put it in the newsletter.

    Contrast that with what employees are doing at home, probably. Not dressing up for themed Thursday, not probably even putting on pants. Not laughing at my jokes, in fact probably saying mean things about me because I’m not around. Eating cheese puffs and taking extra long bathroom breaks. Not being productive. Quiet quitting because they’re depressed about being stuck in their house all day. Not being a team player or taking pride in the company. It’s outrageous and it’s time we stop with these shenanigans and get back to work.

      I asked for generic examples; no need to go into detail.

      Oh, and if you are trying to pursue a career in comedy, work on it harder. Doesn’t parse very well over text. And if the text is not good, no acting can compensate for it.

          Sure! Remind me the address again. And I’ll make sure to take a cream pie with me.

      The ol’ plzza party to make the office “fun”

      If work gets done, why do you care what I have on, where I work, what I’m doing during my day? Sure, SOME people can’t be trusted, call them out with some metrics, say they’re doing less work at home, ASK them if something the problem! “You good Jane? I notice your work isn’t getting done, something going on at home? Your wellbeing is important to us at $GetYourAssInTheOffice and we’d like to help if we can” and if they still can’t be trusted, fire them. We All have our problems, we all make mistakes and need help some time.

      Nah “fuck you, we have pizza, this is fun. Ruin your mental health further sitting in traffic and getting your picture taken unwillingly. You know you need money to live, you want to be homeless?”

      Yeah, you’re an asshole.
