If you want to avoid "crowds" (if you can call 40% to 50% capacity a crowd), the best day to go in is Monday, followed by Friday. I've tested out every day in the past few weeks and the office on Monday is a ghost town. Friday is a little more populated but not by much. Tuesday and Wednesday are the worst. I'm not sure if this is useful information for anybody, but I thought I might as well share.

It depends upon what day you are required to be in the office. Some require both Monday and Friday, for example.

People can communicate in whatever language they choose.
Wells 100% knows if you are working from home or in the office. Don't tell me you haven't noticed those location pop ups on your computer. They can track IP addresses of your logins to know where you are. They may not do anything about it anytime soon, but they know.
Based on the 3/2 hybrid and myself going in almost every day to see, Tuesdays and weds are the busiest, Mon and Friday the slowest, Thursday ave.
Actually, there's zero risk if you limit the firing to white men. There's been several very clear cut cases that have failed to gain traction in court. You can fire all the white guys you want. Not that I support that kind of bigotry, but the courts obviously do.
Absolutely right about Friday, but I’m sure not going to make a commute on Monday morning.
@hdk Don’t be too sure about policies and discrimination. There are laws about age discrimination, happens 7 ways till Sunday nonetheless.
The bank would be taking a large risk by doing that. They need to apply policies consistently. When they don't, they risk the appearance of discrimination.
Firing people isn't as easy as people sometimes think it is.
One data point here: I'm one that has not RTO'd, an is not going to RTO.
There isn't anybody else even in the same state that I work with, so the only way they'd know where my bu-t is sitting is if they start running some kind of report, maybe for badge swipes or non-VPN connections or something.
My work still gets done as it always has, and I'm saving a boatload of gas money. And my family time which is would otherwise be wasted on a long urban commute has value, too.
Haven't heard a peep out of anyone about it.
And not worried about it.

Won’t happen, just like the veiled threats and pressure they put on the unvaxed people. Just empty threats.
You realize, that they don’t need to fire all. What they will do, if they want to, is to randomly select a few and fire them to make an example. That will have enough of a psychological effect to induce the rest to comply.
Or better yet, stay home. The numbers of those not going in are way too big for them to fire us all. This only works if we hold strong.
