This is some bullshit and should signal to dem voters that dems don’t have your backs. Dems are centrists, not Leftists. They server corporate power rather than workers. Push the party Left.

    We are dealing with that now.

    At office, one of the higher ups wants everyone to go back to office, but there is no more buildings to house us. And they are expecting less funds this year. They would need to remove about 1/2 the workforce in order for us all to make it into buildings. Im floating the idea that we re-define what an “in person office” is so that both workers and higher ups get what they want ;)

    It may lead to layoffs in the future to be honest. That would suck but they cant deal with the work right now as is. Layoffs would be seen as a huge step back in their plans.

      Layoffs are absolutely the end-game. The US economy is in a bad state at the moment, and the state is running a deficit. Just like the crap the feds are pulling, this is a way of indirectly reducing the state workforce by deteriorating working conditions in hopes that people will quit. CA has already swept vacant positions to prevent taking on future cost. If not enough people quit, eliminating filled positions is likely the next step.
