Revoked Telewoke Policies Revolting?

WSJ notes how big cities can’t get workers to return to its center-offices after the pandemic eased, WaPo orders staff back to its DC office or else & VA Gov Youngkin tweaks state’s telewoke policy prompting 300 resignations. Revolting?

BTW: The expressways & main thoroughfares leading into the wanna-be 51st State aka District of Columbia are STILL a breeze to drive thru during what used to be a nasty rush hour. Partly it’s because federal, state & local workers STILL need only show up at the pandemic-emptied offices a couple of days or so a week. Accustomed to not working much when they WERE in the office & having spent much of the last 2 years pretending to work much of the time at home while gallivanting around the region’s beautiful scenic parks, these folks understandably are balking at any suggestion they earn their taxpayer paychecks where somebody can really see they are earning them.

Now, the Swamp’s favorite progressive newspaper apparently is catching hell for trying to mimic the government model. In a memo to staff last week, the head of HR said he’d start enforcing his “return to office policy” that was supposedly implemented in March. Now, he reminds, since so few have taken heed, he’s demanding he sees their sorry rear ends in the office “at least 3 days per week” or face “disciplinary action.” As Fox News reports, WaPo concedes it’s been experiencing “resistance” to the return to office policy; recently, staffers engaged in an undeniable high profile Twitter war, even mocking one another, over this & other politicalized issues. The latest memo from HR is a fair warning to “comply now” in being “collegial … and … collaborative”. Or else, what?
