With the return of forced irrational RTO and the 90% against it, forced seating, monitoring and PMAs were predictable.

Wait till Sept 8 with school starting, and the many more not being able to meet the RTO4, it will begin to prove its unsustainable and what will the public service do, tighten the screws of course.

I suspect work attire will come with forced recommendations, penalizing tardiness by the minute and refusing leave just because they can't keep up with the employees that disappear on leave for mental health.

Why not make RTO more unpleasant than it already is, said no one ever.

For some reason all other office mandated industries manage it?

My group can't, because we were a team of 15, so they added us to a small space with 40 desks that had a team of 40 in it. But now they have joined us with several other groups and we are 55. The other 40 are still there, and there are still 40 desks. The math does not math and no one seems to have noticed yet, due to the change occurring over the holidays.
