can't wait to see how the wifi-only DellEfficiency APs handle the traffic without any hardwired cube ethernet.

Eat a good breakfast,get to work. When the time arrives, drop a deuce. Challenges the janitorial serfs. Do it right, and the day to day folks, not unlike you, will rise up. Demand two-ply

"overcrowded cafeteria with absurd lines and food stock-outs,"

Won't happen in my office as they closed the cafeteria a few years ago and have announced that they have no plans to reopen it in the near future.

I think a lot of you who have been staying at home have no idea how many people have been coming in 3-4 days a week for the last couple of quarters. It's not going to be chaos on Monday as most eveyone has been coming in already

don't expect to find a spot in the refrigerator for your lunch at 176. It's crowded now, can't image what it's going to look like come Monday. No more room at the Inn.

I spent my week walking around the office and wiping boogers on all the unoccupied desks! Can't wait for you all to come back!

As a bitter ex-Dell, I am hoping and praying for maximum chaos and a disastrous forced in-office experience.

I want full parking lots, networking connectivity problems and slowdowns, overcrowded cafeteria with absurd lines and food stock-outs, not enough desks, people working on the floor and fruitlessly searching for outlets, disgustingly overcrowded bathrooms, broken coffee and drink machines, no meeting or team spaces available, nowhere but outside to take important private phone calls, maximal stinky foods in the break room microwaves, and terrible productivity. Is that so much to ask?

I’m the OP. I used to go to 171. That’s no more

if you sit in my spot, you will be physically moved. Stay away from ISG areas.

Ask your leadership which building. Both 176 and 228 have space, and both have collab space if you don’t want to pick a random cube. Workstation assignments should be hitting Hop during late Q1, so if your leadership isn’t sure because they aren’t local, ask around a join any others in your org for now.

228 has plenty of room on the first floor, second floor is tight on one side but very open on the other side

176 has a lot of free space but it is very disorganized

171 is closed

Nope. I was told that my team would be reporting to RR; but I'm physically closer to the Parmer offices. I'm still remote in Workday. So, until they change it in the system, I'm going to the Parmer location (per the FAQs which state you should be located at the office closest to you).

Think of it like an IQ test. If you can't even figure out where to show up....you will be released for incompetence

Where did you used to go? Where are the majority of people at when you get there? 228 or 176? I'm hearing 176 is the place. Just badge in at one or the other, hang out for 8 hours and go home. This really isn't complicated. You can't be this d-mb.....or wait.....

I’ll be reporting to RR1 with my team but apparently our space isn’t ready yet (big surprise) so we were told to wait until Wed.
