Steve Schwarzman of the Blackstone group said staff want to work from home so they can save money
The boss of the world’s biggest commercial landlord has accused remote workers of staying away from the office because it means they “don’t work as hard” and can save money.
Steve Schwarzman, the chief executive of investment firm the Blackstone group, made the claims about hybrid staff while speaking on a panel at the Future Investment Initiative summit in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
In remarks first reported by Bloomberg, he said employees had kept working from home because “they didn’t work as hard, regardless of what they tell you” and also due to the savings they make on their daily commute, lunches and work attire.
I’m not saying violence is the answer, but I do believe he deserves to be strapped into a machine that just slaps him in the face constantly
I dunno, historically speaking, violence has often been the answer.
Maybe it wasn’t always the best answer, but it certainly is effective. Just ask the French!
I never said it wasn’t the answer either 😉
People don’t like you to know this but the revolutionary war was very violent. What did the revolutionaries want anyway? Representation. Hmm. I wonder if there is a place that has an underclass that has increasingly less representation in government.
I feel productivity rising already and am behind this initiative.
I feel something else rising…
I’ve got a raging clue!
I have a throbbing inkling!
Just make sure to do it in an office so the slapping will be more productive.
Maybe we can gamify that a little. Every time a worker-bee completes a task, the machine delivers a slap and a photo to the worker. We can collect them like sortie markers on WWII bombers. Boss gets feedback on how productive his employees are, and employees get to compete for points.
