I kind of don't get what's going on here. I'd think your options would be:
a) Go back to the office, or
b) Stop working there
Like you'd either say to your boss "Look, this work from home thing is really important to me, so I need to look for an opportunity where I can continue to do that," or your boss would say to you "Look, you keep not showing up to work, so we're gonna let you go."
It seems like any period where the company says "Okay, everybody back to the office" and some people say "Oh yeah I'm just gonna ignore that" has got to be pretty short-lived, right?
The problem os that they rely on their employees.. go figure.. this just means they cant afford to fire these people.
yeah looks like they cannot afford severance and unemployment
