I have to go to the office once a week and besides communicating with my colleagues over IM, I have to connect over RDS to my machine because it sits in another room.

I go to the office and I'm still remote!

Management doesn't care you come to the office just to do your work remotely anyway since your other coders are not in the same geographical location as you, they just want you in the office because they are also in the office because the CEO also wants them in the office.

What's the point of clawing your way to the top of the heap if you can't physically look out over your peons toiling for you?

I wonder if this is due to a sort of Five Monkeys Experiment, or is it just to fill the fish bowl?
