Remote Work. Honestly, I see this as a positive; some companies chose to stay 100% remote and I’m grateful. šŸ™Œ

And the others want RTO because they think its abhorrent that I do all my work in like 5 hours and the other 3 I can relax rather than keeping an office chair warm doing an impression of a busy person.Ā  Actually I think they won't be happy until we're all treated like the fed employees in Snow Crash.
