Illogic

I am incredibly terrible at logic puzzles. A company event had some we did as a group. Of the eight of them we did, even after the answers were given I could not understand why those were the answers or how they derived from the clues. And I know I never would be able to even given infinite time.

In my life I think I might’ve understood one logic puzzle. And it was aimed at six-year-olds.

Seats

Return-to-Office Mandates Are a Disaster for Working Mothers. Remote work brought record numbers of women into the labor pool. Why give back those gains?

It brought record numbers of disabled people into the workforce, too.

RTO mandates are a disaster for everyone and will lead to lower productivity and a worse economy. But Boomer MBA types absolutely fucking love to see butts in seats. It’s how they get their kicks and it’s a lot harder to torture and harass someone over Zoom. That’s what they care about in reality — it has little to nothing to do with anything else.

Others groveling is their love language. Many of them would tank their entire companies if they could get people to be subservient to them in the office. And some of them will do just that.
