Which country are you in where you get to expense the commute to your designated office?
I’m in the UK and have never heard of this. Sure, if you’re a home worker but that’s not who RTO is targeted at. Or if you’re asked to travel to a non-designate site, client site etc
It’s a really good point. Sorry, I wasn’t trying to imply people are whining but I can understand in the current environment why it would come across like this.
I also didn’t realise something so critical has doubled, we historically have relatively cheap food in the UK and I can only imagine the uproar if that doubled over a short period.
I know it’s what you get used to but that sounds still absurdly low when compared to your [country’s] median disposable income. I assume the UK the real cost is twice that.
I see it quite often, and order it myself as I quitr like it and the distillery is only 30 minutes from where I live.
I know you didn’t ask but my favorite gin is Xorigeur Menorcan gin but that may be as a result of where I drink it most!! :)
(AI warning note) I see while their sales have dropped about 25% in the UK since peak GIN-mania, it’s actually picking up more of the overall market share. So 12% market share in 2020, 17% in 2024
Ah, no, you see, what you’re actually referring to is “energy recycling”. See, doesnt that greenwashing sound so much better?
It’s how Norway from memory tops the recycling league
Having just been made redundant this week after 15 years this is so true.
I managed it very well, very rarely having committed more than my allotted hours each week but I know for many they would have to have been very disciplined to achieve this.
I leave with no malice or ill feeling as a result. I’d hate to think how I’d feel otherwise
5 day is brutal, my friend in the city (London’s finance sector) has this and it’s therefore more restrictive than it ever was before covid.
He has something like a day a month where he can elect in advance to WFH for specific reasons.
It creates scenarios where a friend in the US drives 40 minutes just to swipe his card/ go have breakfast and then heads home again
