Quite keen to get into it with him and vote with my feet if he continues to be a prick.
I really hope people hold firm and vote with their feet, I know I will if I have to go back to anything more than a couple of days but of course it relies on other places being accommodating.
I've got to go in for first day next Wednesday and am dreading it already, how will I get a days worth of work done in an office and if I need to work late I've got 2 hours of day gone due to commuting etc.

Yeah will be interesting. My work are mandating 50% time in the office. Having worked an insane amount of hours this year I’m feeling completely burnt out and belligerent. I’ve lined-up a number of informal calls with other firms to discuss their plans for the future - I think it really helps to be armed with knowledge as to how the rest of the market is approaching things. It’s much easier to tell your current place to fuck off if you know rival outfits are offering a more flexible approach.
Ultimately I just want to be treated like an adult. My output has been ridiculous (by my office’s own assessment) over the last year and a half, so why try to force me back in?
For context, I asked our Managing Partner if I could work from home one day a week about two months before the first lockdown. He told me it would seriously damage my career. Quite keen to get into it with him and vote with my feet if he continues to be a prick.
