How do they keep track of you if you're alone in the office? I'm just curious.

We have access cards to unlock the office doors; this is tracked. Everyone is required to be in the office for a certain amount of days per month, and a monthly report is always generated. I found when the fewest people are coming (nobody on my floor), and that's when I come in, given that my entire team are digital nomads, so I'd communicate with them via Slack anyway.

Gotta love jobs that treat their staff like children.

Damn that sucks. It's so arbitrary.
