    transcript

    FTE #1: As a manager, you should be more supportive of the new flexible work policy.

    FTE #2: You realise that when we agree to a varied start time we're committing, by implication, to a particular end time, right? We haven't done that for salaried workers for decades.

    FTE #1: No wonder they like it so much.

    Caption: Flexibility is in the eye of the beholder.
