I passed up the opportunity to convert my internship into a full-time position because there's no flexi working arrangement even though I could do most of my tasks at home. The commute whether by PT or driving is intolerable

Oof, sorry to hear. I really don't understand the whole "we have an office, you must be in the office to work even if you can do your job just as week from home" mentality.

The boss bought and recently expanded (at that time) the office so she really feels it has to be used 😅

it's about control, boomer managers are afraid of losing that. they talk about office culture but when you rock up they talk about their kids and what not also. tf
