To think this is a surefire way to insist that everyone comes back into the office?

Latest BBC News link today. If I was an employer and I was forced into giving staff compulsory four day weeks based on compressed hours, I’m be making sure they were doing them in the office.

Yet more unintended consequences

I can understand that. I am 3 months into a new job, and I was surprised how violated I felt when my manager was asking about files in my home directory. I have been a sys admin for about a quarter of a century, and I would never go into someone's home dir unless I had a specific reason, like seeing if they had a problem with their profile (or when i had to gather evidence for HR for an investigation- that was not nice.) Ideally they would show me, rather than me looking without them. I don't have anything to hide, but I do expect some privacy. I know they can look, but they shouldn't feel able to. (I am hiding that I have another job interview lined up in a week, because I am really struggling with the lack of trust.)
