    I worked in the IT and transferred their my previous Org ecosystem to work remote by deploying all the tools for employees to work remote many years ago even before the Covid. I tired to negotiate to be fully remote with my supervisor so I can move somewhere where i really want to live. He refused, so i had to quite my job, my supervisor then couldn’t hold the job without me, so he quiet too. M team reached out trying to get me back, but the damage was done.

    Ha. Great work (and by the way, another comparison that my daughter and I undertook when we lived in New Paltz was all the pizza joints there). Anyway, I"m a mostly lifelong New Yorker, now situated in bagel starved-Tucson. We moved from Saugerties last year, and yes, we've been to all the bagel places you covered except Village Bagels, which I think used to be the bakery in town). Tested them all many times, and of course, it's a personal choice. For example, I was never much of a fan of Esse on the Lower East Side but preferred Lenny's My Two Sons on Broadway. Part of the choice involved which made the freshest bagels and also which tasted best after you pulled them from the toaster. For me, there was no comparison: Lox on Bagels was the best by far. Didn't think they were doughy. toasted, they were phenomenal, and getting a hot one to eat in the car was always a treat. I found the Mud Club bagels to be fine but inconsistent. the others were ok. Mostly, your video was a shot of nostalgia for our old town, and yes, you got it right about Saugerties.

    I'm an ulster county resident and I'll go out of my way to go to Lox O Bagel's in Saugerties. They also sell them at a lot of local deli's and Hannifords(supermarket) the only bagels on this list i haven't tried is Mud Club and Village. I would put Sunrise at the bottom of the list. To me they are more like Hard rolls cosplaying as bagel's, They dont even have a hole they are so big.

    The best bagel in woodstock is the bagel you make yourself or have to go to the city for, tbh. bread alone is very bland and they force their politics on you, mud club has mostly good produce but they are literally across the road from bread alone, and the pizza place (so mud can only compete adjacently?) ... who knows wtf politics are going on with that silly mud empire

Of course cable isn’t offered at this place…and it’s surrounded by damn trees. Plus it’s on a lake, so cutting them down isn’t an option due to regulations. It’s like seriously? Am I really going to have to turn down this once in a lifetime opportunity because of friggin internet in 2021? Seriously?!

    "Unfortunately these can sometimes be filled with lots of garbage positions and outdated posts." Very true. Even surprisingly LinkedIn Jobs, which you might think was vetted etc. I've even encountered a bunch of positions that explicitly stated that they were voluntary/unpaid. Those shouldn't be making it past a filter but they are. Another issue for those of not based in the US: there are a lot of positions that aren't up front about where they will accept candidates from (US-only remote, Canada-only remote, etc). This is another major nuisance. The specialist sites are the way to go. As you say, they're leading the charge.

    Hi Steve! We were chatting on Reddit (I think you're active in /r/remotework). Firstly everything Jonnie said. For such a hot topic (remote work) there's a deficit of actionable guidance out there. So glad to see you putting these videos up. Love the line about having more leverage than you think. I think the general "badness" of the remote work process convinces a lot of us otherwise. But I'm guessing when you find the right opp, you're in the driving seat more than you realize. Looking forward to following your channel!

So I will return to the office, but will be the only one in my team in that office, the rest of the team is across the ocean, it has been like this for around 5 years now, so instead of having calls from home I will be having calls from the office, but now I will have the commute time where before I would have meetings... so yeah, "it is going to be a major productivity increase". Btw the only talks I hear around the "water cooler" is "how bad the weather is, or where people went for the weekend, or what company should we open together so we can get out if this shithole, or how bad the team members are", office talk are crap, hate it hate it hate it.
