Workers are unhappy to be back in the office, and now they're getting ready to quit

#7  That's good. I just watched work from home schooling and it was absolute shit. They don't have the work ethic tooled in already, and think that hard work is sitting there phoning screening it in.

A micro cosmos of undeveloped personalities who think hard work is screen timing and forwarding items which sound high thinking engagement would be the professional media class. Our high school and college age kids just had two years of lessons that showing up isn't really 90% of it.

#6  My old job wanted us back in the office 5 days a week after only being there 2 days before COVID and I told them to go fuck themselves.

I jumped for a 100% remote job that paid more and had better benefits. I definitely get more done remotely than at the office where every random cocksplash stops by my desk with stupid questions.

#5  but then maybe they can be rezoned into housing or something.

My old work office was smack in the middle of Seattle - a few blocks from Muscatel Meadows. No thanks. I haven't been to the office in 2 years except to pick up my stuff.

#4  Maybe they're just considering job offers from employers who will let them work from home.

#3  Bad time for anyone invested in business properties, but then maybe they can be rezoned into housing or something.

#2  The work ethic is unrelated. Some folks get more done working at home than they do driving in traffic to work in a cubicle.

Lots of jobs are advertising working remote and I suspect it is a growing trend for certain sectors of the job market.

#1  Did we ever have a ruling that destruction of work ethic counted as casualties of government Covid protocols?

I think it can be put in the monetary damage ledger for sure. Whether that can count against mental and physical health damage (stress, dependencies)?
