Ah yes. The lament of the middle managers with nothing to do. They feel threatened because it turns out they weren't needed after all.

Managers of technical people are required, but in an efficient organisation there is no need to have layer to manage those managers.

I work from home, and my manager works from home also. He's not even in the same country as me.

Not all middle management has a thing for insisting people work from the office.

Middle managers don't have power to insist such things. Daddy CEO makes these calls with a lot of fanfare
