For what it’s worth, I agree with your sentiment wholeheartedly in-spite of the harshness of the tone that was used. I was hoping for a reply along the lines of the one you posted because this can be an emotional topic depending on the kinds of companies you have experience working for.

I also feel that some corporate muckety-muck is going to see this and foist it upon their workforce, further subjugating them under the guise of collaboration and togetherness. Luckily, I work someplace that doesn’t do that to its employees but many are not that fortunate.
