#inoffice

So far my manager has not set an 8 hour requirement . I am in the office 6 hours but who knows when that will change….

Day 1 of 5 tomorrow. 8 hrs per day, 40 hrs per week. M-F. Don't FORGET ABOUT IT! See you in the office, slackers.

Like if I’m going to be out for two weeks do those extra days work for the week right before? How does it work for when it’s the end of the month? I don’t see this published anywhere

So d-mb

Effective immediately? What a sh-t show.
Tracking our mouse movements or clicks.
I assume Q1 is the announcement of 4 days a week or back to 5.

I guess this is one way of saying, I’m only doing my 8 hours and shutting down.. see ya again at 7am.

I've been on a medical exemption for the last 4 months - a legit one - and the last 1x1 I had RTO was never even brought up. I was asked how I was doing but that was it. I report to a director so, a step up from a sr. manager and is one who would have more insight into all of that - I think anyways...

I'm almost wondering if this was a sneaky scare tactic Dell/JC made. Enforce a mandatory 5 days/week RTO that gets tracked and enforce it for a quarter; then back off and/or totally stop tracking/caring but don't tell anybody.

Think about it... If you/managers/directors don't know if they are still tracking it, people will continue to go in, right? The moment people find out that they AREN'T tracking it anymore... Nobody will go in.

I suppose the only test would be to NOT go in and see if your manager/director says anything about it... But I have a sneaky suspicioun that they aren't really tracking that anymore. If they are, it's likely just wanting a few days/week.

Got a message from my manager saying full office hours are expected if you are in office :(

Chevron has become such a benchmarking company and focused on following others that it seems to have forgotten how to think for itself. Now we’re adopting this outdated ‘hoteling’ concept, where desks are unassigned and there’s less workspace than people. How dehumanizing is that? We’re required to be in the office at least four days a week, yet our assigned offices and cubes are taken away. This leftover strategy from the hybrid work era makes no sense. Wake up, Chevron…

Hey, hey, how was the first week back.

Good to see people at gas stations, writing checks for daycare, and actually getting showered and dressed by 7!

Kind of a wake up call! I think it is the best thing to happen all year!

If you don't like it, turn quit. Drinking coffee doesn't make you an important cog in the company!

In case you all needed another reason to hate your jobs, here’s a fun treat for those who are going into the new Lake Mary, FL office that opens next week. HR has confirmed swipe out badge readers have been installed, and advised “Elevance expects all associates to remain on-site for the duration of the workday.”

Have to start going into office 4x a week min 6 hours a day starting 1/1/26. Talk about id--tic.

As an agency worker I'm fortunate to not have to return to the office. I feel for the full time employees but hey its a perk of being agency.
