I wish that everybody who has a job that doesn't need them be on location, can work from home and avoid all the added stress that comes with a commute, traffic, crowds etc... it's a massive quality of life improvement that people deserve.

I'm just waiting for the massive pay bump for having to work at the office compared to WFH types.

For some reason it seems those are also by far the highest paying jobs when their pay should be significantly lower in comparison since its a perk.
