Ep. 95: Why They Really Want You Back in the Office
Let’s talk about the uncomfortable truth behind the return-to-office push.
It’s not about culture.
It’s not about collaboration.
And it’s definitely not about those stale bagels in the breakroom.
In this episode of Love Monday, I unpack what’s really going on: control, surveillance, and a system that punishes high performers by giving them more work instead of more reward.
I share why remote work shook the foundation of how companies operate — and why some leaders are desperate to claw that control back. We’ll also look at how remote work gave employees a taste of something dangerous: freedom.
If you’ve ever felt like getting better at your job just earned you more hours without more pay… this one’s for you.
