Amazon tells employees to return to office five days a week

Any company that tells me I have to be in office 5 days a week is a company I am never bringing home a laptop for. If the place burns down because it isn't adequately staffed outside of normal working hours, so be it.

You're definitely bringing your laptop home when you're oncall.

I'm never going to be on call. It is a condition of my employment. If you've let them abuse you like that, then it's on you.

That isn't to say that if something needs to be overseen because a part of our infrastructure needs updating that I won't volunteer. But being mandated to babysit systems? No, absolutely not.

So long as they don't take my stapler.
