    still complaining about work sorry

    my first office day sucked ass so i called in sick today. i got there, forgot what floor we were on so kept visiting different floors until i found it. opened up my laptop, wifi wouldn’t connect so missed my morning meeting. IT guy helped me find a wired desk. service desk guy misgendered me (i feel like intentionally? he was kinda rude from the jump and i was in a very femme outfit using a not-perfect girl voice). and i spent the rest of the day overstimulated, cold, uncomfortable, and super fucking anxious. i mean the office was bad pre-transition but now i’m just so on-edge i can barely even do any work

    i’ve just had my penultimate psych session where i got him to explain my diagnosis in a letter. if that doesn’t work i’m going to quit, the main reason i’m staying is because i really like my team, there’s some (measly) trans benefits offered to 1+ year perms, and i’m dreading having to find another job

    every single time i talk to someone about wfh they talk about how much they missed the social connectiveness of the office and how lonely they felt but i just don’t get that. i know there’s people that are more affected by RTO than myself and i know i probably sound privileged asf but i just can’t do this shit 3 times a week. i don’t even think i’m leaving the house that often outside of work…







  • if anyone's interested, here are some of the questions (none of them answered) from our company meeting about this

    What if there’s no direct benefit of attending the site? e.g. my coworkers are at a different site

    literally me (and by the sounds of it, a lot more people working here), hence why i’ve been allowed to wfh so far

    Can you quantify the reduced productivity that you say you’re seeing?

    they can’t quantify shit, in the same meeting they were discussing rising profits ffs

    Will there be exceptions for neurodivergent individuals?

    maybe, if they’ve spent hundreds of dollars on a diagnosis (still need to test this myself however)

    Covid hasn’t gone away, people are still dying from it. What steps will <company> take to make sure the more crowded workspaces are safe?

    fuck all. they don’t give a shit if their actions cause further deaths if it can save them some money

    bonus:

    It’s not hard to work in the office. We did it prior to covid and 5 days a week!
