Last April 4, employees under the IT and BPO sector were ordered to return to office. They wanted everyone - 100% full RTO. They said we can help
I was enjoying the work at home set up for 2 years already before we returned to working in the office. I found it very convenient since I can easily take care of my 2 furbabies, I spend less on food and transportation expenses and most especially, I have more time to rest after a very busy 8 hour work.
Everything's convenient. I even can make my own coffee shop-like-coffee instead of ordering or buying my iced or cold drink everyday.
It was a little hard to adjust when I started going to the office again. Especially that the local mode of transportation has changed too. Before, I would usually just ride 1 bus to Ayala then another bus to get to BGC, but now, I have to ride a bus to Quezon Avenue, do a 10 minute walk to ride the train station and finally take the bus to BGC. I swear it's tiring.
I hope the government could consider a hybrid work set up. The world has changed during the pandemic. I hope they could listen to employee's concerns.
