Indiana Lt. Gov. Micah Beckwith’s office has remained closed during normal hours several times in recent weeks, despite Governor Mike Braun’s push for state employees to return to in-person work.
The Indiana Capital Chronicle visited the office six times between late June and mid-July and found it dark or locked on four occasions-three of them on Fridays.
Internal messages show staff had permission to work remotely on at least some of those days.
One message on June 20 said the office would be closed due to Beckwith’s travel schedule and told staff to work from home.

Another free loader. He’s a Preacher so no experience for the job. Asking for money from people is what he does.
Is he a servant of the people, for the people
Or is he Lording over all of us
For most white collar jobs, working from home is just fine. A part time work from home schedule can actually save money in the form of lower wages and facilities costs. Working from home is not the evil bugbear people seem to think that it is.
Also, the Lt Governor is an elected official and as such I’m not sure he actually has to follow Braun’s rules.
Cry Babies!
How many public officials actually show up in the office yet still do no work?
I have no impression that the Lt. Gov is lording it over anyone. He has no authority as Lt. Gve to ask for any money from any taxpayer., That is the job of the legislature with the cooperation of the GOV.
Civics education is sorely lacking in this place.
