RTO metrics are more often than not about tax breaks, not that your boss wants to hover over you. By coming into the office you have a chance of stimulating the local economy and the government cuts taxes in return, but only if there are metrics showing that a certain percentage of your local staff are coming in. It is all really stupid, antiworker, and driven by money.
I am barely getting away with not returning to the office, but my company is cracking down on it. The moment they take my bonus or otherwise reprimand me is the moment I put in my notice.

I know exactly what the RTO mandates are about.
My point is that I don’t care, and it’s not my problem, and I ca. elucidate specific ways in which it makes my job harder as a data pipeline engineer.
It’s a fucking dumb requirement, and it’s a particularly fucking dumb requirement for my particular job role.
