This is the real reason for companies wanting people back to the office.

All this talk about collaboration and team spirit is just the publicly given reason for wanting people back to the office.

The real reason is that now the owners of the buildings are losing money.

I have a pension through work, and through the government.

So you work for the government? One of the few to only sectors left in the USA with a pension.

Not in the US. North of that. Canada Pension Plan through the government. If you work, you have a pension. It’s not great, but it’s something.

The one from work is because I am part of a union.
