The Workplace Debate: Work From Home Or Return to Office?

Tonight, Dr. Phil will be discussing how many employers are mandating their staff back to the office, but in response, many employees are claiming they would rather quit than return to their desks. First, Dr. Phil will speak with New Jersey State Senator, representing Legislative District 26, Joe Pennacchio. Senator Pennacchio has proposed a bill that would require New Jersey state employees to return to the office five days a week, effectively eliminating the option to work remotely. Find out why he believes a return to the office is necessary. Joining the debate is Joel, a 10-year remote worker who insists that CEOs who push return to the office policies are only doing so to make sure employees have their priorities straight, work comes first, then family, health, and hobbies. Dr. Phil will also speak with Jane, a remote employee who says she has made it a career goal to hunt down the laziest and most mindless remote jobs possible. Jane says she would actually quit her job if she was asked to return to the office. Dr. Phil will also speak with Seth, who says he went from working in an office his entire career to working remotely from his home. Seth says he thought a remote job would be a dream come true, but instead, it became a nightmare that seriously affected his mental health. Plus, find out how Dr. Phil uncovered a website that offers tips on how not to get caught secretly working two remote jobs at the same time!
