I love how not a single word was about productivity. Because it's only about control, regardless of the negative impacts to the employees or company. Useless management trying to justify their existence.

    I do a job in which I produce countable digital product for my employer. I keep records of everything I complete (it only takes a couple of seconds per item).

    I went back and looked at my logs for the last six months (to shake out any "on this day I was working on Xs, on that day I was working on more time-consuming Ys" biases) and wouldn't you know it...

    The three days a week I'm at home working alone and not getting interrupted every five minutes by a coworker, I'm almost 20% more productive on average than the two office days where that's not the case. I know, I was as shocked as you are.

    And guess whose employer just announced a third office day per week upcoming? It's almost like they're saying, "Oh boy, I can't WAIT to get less worker productivity! But at least they'll be collaborating!"
