As agencies scramble to comply with President Trump's Jan. 20 order terminating remote work, employees say the process has been marked by confusion, changing guidance, and frustrating conditions.

The article from KPBS discusses the challenges faced by federal workers as they return to office settings following an order from the Biden administration to increase in-person work. Many employees are encountering significant logistical issues including shortages of desks, inadequate Wi-Fi connectivity, and even basic supplies like toilet paper. This has led to a chaotic transition back to office life, with some workers struggling to find a proper workspace, leading to makeshift arrangements and reduced productivity. The situation has sparked discussions on the effectiveness of the return-to-office mandate, with critics arguing that it might not only disrupt current work efficiencies but also affect employee morale and the government's ability to attract and retain talent in a competitive job market.
