I am prepared to submit to authority, even on life and death matters, as long as there is a self-consistent message that I can in principle believe.

I'm struggling with the internal contradictions of saying we have a life and death situation where every non-essential office worker must wear a mask at their desk but we can't go back to full time telecommuting.

If our dear leader feels there are essential workers needed, I am willing to serve and wear a mask. If she feels that we need to be in the office, and the risk is not that great, I'm willing to do that. If she feels that the risk is high and rising and we should be telecommuting, then I'm ok with that.

But don't tell us that we're non-essential and we have to be in the office and we have to wear masks when alone at our desks.

Logic dictates a maximum of two out of three.
