My employer is mandating RTO now as well. I'm going for a medical accommodation, but they're even pushing back against that. They argue that office attendance is essential to my role--a role I got in 2021 after more than a year of full-time remote work and which I have never performed in an office.

I've been with my company since 2009. This RTO business has shredded any feeling of goodwill and reframes my employer as my adversary. Talking to my co-workers, I can feel their loss of morale as well. It makes me wonder how many people we will lose and whether that might be the whole point.
