Employees come and go at different times of the day and week, and adherence to onsite policies can vary greatly by location.

This makes it impossible for workplace managers to know how many people are onsite on any given day, and how to best allocate space and resources across the organization.

This short-sightedness always blows my mind. My friend said he needed to be in the office 50% of the week. I said it's 60% right unless you do a half office day. He said, more like 2 sometimes but if everyone did show up at once then there would be no spots.

How do you mandate return to office if you're not going to be doing some the most basic planning for it.

Also, I love this quote:
