Microsoft is getting ready to return to the office (www.theverge.com)

Microsoft said that employees who spend three or four days in the office have higher Thriving Scores — a metric that measures employee well-being.

Personally, when my company started forcing everyone back to office three days per week, I quit. I hated it so much. Because it affects my entire life.

I dont want my coworkers and bosses to be part of my life. I didnt pick them, I dont like some of them, and there is a huge feeling of hierarchy all the time. It sucks.

This is a bad sign for Microsoft imo. A lot of the "return to office" stuff is about shedding employees without doing layoffs.

As long as it's the vibe coders and whoever was in any way involved in deciding, authorizing, or coding the conversion of the Start menu to React Native.

Unfortunately, that’s who they’re retaining.

This is a bad sign for Microsoft IMO.

So, it is a good sign!
