Comment on ONS staff refuse to work two days a week in office

  So why are they allowing part-time work then. If working in the office is necessary then surely it is necessary 100% of the time. So if they are allowing anyone to spend some time working outside of the office then clearly they can spend all their time working outside the office.

  The managers just don’t want them doing that.

      That’s a deflection. Not a retort.

        Because it’s a ludicrous assertion. Just because something is useful on a regular basis, that does mean it is required constantly.

        “Why are they letting people get out of bed? If people need beds, they clearly should be lying in them all day”
