Nothing more "rewarding" than returning to the office only to sit on Zoom all day. There are days when I have back to back meetings and I have tried, practically begged, to be allowed to work from home on these days to no avail. "We may miss out on valuable spontaneous ideas!" I have yet to see these face-to-face moments lead to anything actually productive.

But look at my sprint numbers during work from home? Through the roof. I was to the point that I was begging for more tickets because I was chewing through the normal workload. Upper management doesn't care. They want a butt in the seat. Rumor is that their bonuses are tied to RTO numbers.

Zoom has become the new "Death by Power Point". At least at home, when Zoom Fatigue sets in, I can take my normal lunch and have a quick nap.
