Doug Ford doesn't care about people.

Fuck Doug Ford.

Doug Ford is a really stubborn man... he deserves to go to jail... he's probably thinking about Timbits right now. And I'm telling him he is a Timbit himself.

As a tax payer, fuck this guy for wasting resources. As a person who drives, fuck this guy for making traffic worse. As a human, fuck this guy for making the lives of my fellow citizens worse.

Fuck this guy. Who can I call or email to say this is not ok?

Dipshit Doug ford says "fuck climate goals, productivity and efficiency." Waste fuel. Waste time. Waste money.

Conservatives aren't happy until you aren't happy. The point is to suffer.

"Ford also suggested having provincial workers return to the office is better for the economy, pointing out that many small businesses that rely on foot traffic from office workers have [suffered due to remote work policies]"

This basically assumes if you work from home you never leave, dont order in, or don't shop in the stores in your area. What if I work from home but I walk to my corner bagel store for breakfast every morning? What's going to happen to the bagel store in my neighborhood if I need to now drive 1-2hrs into the city?

"How do you mentor someone over a phone? You can't. You've got to look at them eye to eye," Ford said during an unrelated news conference Thursday in Pickering.

Just because you are personally incapable of growth, don't inflict it on the rest of us!

Ford said his government wasn't influenced by the bank mandates, but said business leaders he'd spoken with agree "everyone needs to go back to work."

Aren't politians meant to represent the will of the people? Doug's always listened to his corporate buddies though.

Send them the bill for the commute time and mileage.

The only thing fascist, narcissistic fuck ford cares about is lining his and his cronies pockets.

It’s not “go back to work”

I work remotely and get a lot done. I do way more than my peers.

It’s wait in traffic unpaid, but a shitty lunch, drink shitty coffee, poop in someone else’s toilet with neighbours, not have access to all my reference books or have to lug them around, then I get to work with a shittier chair, stare at a cheap fuzzy monitor that bugs my eyes, and not have any privacy or quiet to focus.

There was one time I had a corner office, with a door, and a stocked bar, and was allowed beers at lunch (I would class problems as zero, one, or two beer problems). But everything since then has been awful open plans or hot desking, and the beer has all dried up.

My home office wins by a mile.

Drug Fraud, leading Ontario down the garden path of doom.

What a cunt he is.

I really don’t get that mentoring question. I’ve been mentoring employees remotely for over a decade. I’ve found it’s useful to have a few in-person meetups, but most work and career growth can very much be done remotely for any job involving information only.

Obviously any job requiring physical manipulation of objects is going to have to be on site at least some of the time.

"How do you mentor someone over a phone? You can't." Ford said

We have literal suicide prevention phone service that does this, Doug.

Fuck Doug Ford.

I don’t work for government but some day I will piss on his grave. And Mike Harris’ too.

Everyone needs to go back to work

Once again, people in charge who clearly did fuck all from home and assume everybody else does fuck-all from home, too.

These people ARE going go work. "Going to work" implies going to do their job. Shit, for me "going to the OFFICE" means a REDUCTION in work because everybody's always coming by my desk for shit which is distracting me from doing my work.

Fuck every one of these people who can't understand the difference between "going to work" and "going to the office". Especially the ones who have vested interest in raising need for office buildings so their developer buddies can steal extra money.

What the fuck is this shit? Doug Ford and the "business leaders he's spoken with" need to go fuck themselves. Do we need another pandemic just to sort this shit out?

I hope they resign en-masse.

Gosh I’ve never seen Doug ford legislate in my presence, how can he do his job by television? What a lazy shithead, he needs to get to work, by being in my specific presence. Genius fuck.

They want people to quit.

I like Ford however, for the young families working from home, it must have been a bonus and not taking your kids to child care. But that's my point, he should have had more licensed child care facilities in place FIRST before demanding back to the office ruling. Now, what do they do when there is a waiting list as long as your arm?
