Saved you a click (excerpt from the article):

What does the term coffee badging mean?

Many are “coffee badging,” or swiping their ID badges at the office to record their arrival, staying 30 minutes or so ‒ long enough to greet colleagues and grab a cup of coffee – and then heading back home.

For workers who don’t have to swipe a badge, simply establishing their presence or saying “hi” to some colleagues, dropping by a co-worker’s cubicle, or talking loudly in the hallway before “quietly disappearing” serves a similar purpose, said Christopher Nickson, vice president of Segal Group, a human resources consulting firm.

This is good. In times like this, the things we can actually do to impact the system (short of the most drastic actions that some are driven to) are small things like this - things that force them to chase their tails. If you want to force RTO without any data-supported reasoning, expect people to not by into your bullshit. Now these bored, cowardly CEOs can come out and make another sweeping HR-polished announcement about how "it takes at least a minimum amount of X hours each day to form the strong community bonds you deserve in the physical workplace, so we're mandating that, to your benefit!"

This isn't sustainable, so don't help them feel like it is. Resist. Bravo to those quietly defying this moment, and in many other small ways that aren't reported on by online magazines (reporting on businesses likely owned by the same parent company that owns them)!

I mean, how's this supposed to work? If your boss is like

"hey, has anyone seen XYZ, I heard them earlier and saw them in the hallway, but I can't find them now?"

"they went back home"

"WTF"

I get the idea, but I don't see how this is a long term or even particularly practical solution to a boss that wants you back in the office?

It's more relevant for situations where the greater organization is forcing RTO, but your individual manager doesn't care if you're getting work done or perhaps even works at a different location.

I'll have to clone all our fobs, designate 1 person to go in and swipe everyone in
