@@georgeadams890 That wouldn't cover enough downsizing, even if people are meeting their job requirements they might still want to lower their headcount because they can't take the financial burden with how much more interest they'll have to pay on bonds. Tech companies went a bit crazy on borrowing a few years ago because the interest rates were lower, and since the bonds are maturing they have to pay them back and it's looking too expensive to borrow as much money again by issuing as many new ones. Companies like Lyft in particular will be in trouble of going bust, because their debt ratio is already over 2:1.

"I want to go back to my home planet." You can do so by leaving the city and living off grid in the boonies and homesteading such as growing/raising your own food. It's been done and there are other RUclips videos showing you how. Homesteading is a WFH job too.

It's not a bank. But I ordered a COLEMAN mini bike today. After I ordered it, I had a few questions about it. Called up a customer service agent. It was a real person who spoke English that is based here in the United States. I told her how refreshing it was to talk to someone from the US and not India.
Several years ago I had to call Ally Bank on a Saturday evening because I could not access my online savings account and was shocked when a woman answered who was located in the US and was very helpful in helping me solve the problem.
Very few of these companies promised work from home forever. Why would people move to a place away from the office. Did they think the pandemic would go forever? It seems very foolish to me.
@@lizzie2301 I can feel your saltiness. You must be stuck in traffic everyday. I still have the audacity to work from home because I know how to market my skills. Just be good at something and maybe you'll work from home too.
The pandemic showed these companies that we can work from home and keep up the productivity or even in my departments case exceed it. Why make your employees lives miserable if you have an expensive and long commute, and can do your job and have a better work/life balance remotely. It is all about control with these CEOs they don’t give a crap about their employees wellbeing.
@@DotKsmGlmrMovrBtc working from home would suck....you are stationary 8+hrs of the day staring at screen. Besides, there's people in other countries who'd do the same for 1/3 of the cost (edit) which I'm sure will be the next corporate move to cut costs
My ex wife used to remote work. Spent more time going to Walmart, playing on Facebook, etc than she did working. Government job and after Covid, I’m sure she even stepped up her sham game.
Who cares? I bought lemon cookies yesterday and they tasted like lemons. Freaking rocket scientists we are, huh? Some companies(Amex) charge huge annual fees to afford to pay workers better.

Based on my 40+ years of working white-collar jobs, experienced employees are NOT more productive in the office. Just the opposite. The bosses want people back in the office because the bosses don't do anything and have little or no value. Management needs folks in the office so they can have useless and boring in-person meetings so that management can feel they add value. Young/new people working in the office is good so that they can be trained. But 20+ year experienced white-collar employees can do their job anywhere that has high-speed internet.
@@KillPill6233 100 percent; working in the office is a complete waste of time, so many more distractions than working from home. To be honest, my team meets once per week and we can get a lot of things done on the white board, but we only meet for 4 hours and we should probably meet every other week--every week still too much. It's high time to flush/fire/retire the mid-level shoulder surfer managers that add absolutely no value. I have so much more energy and creative abilities working from home; my commute is 3 hours/day and it completely drains me. By the time I make it to the office I am ready to go home. I pound coffee to stay motivated. In the end, the talent will opt for remote work and the companies forcing employees back to the office will loose market share as they try to compete with B grade employees who lack the talent to work from home. Also, the office lease/rent adds up, those that can field a remote workforce will be able to operate at lower costs. For managers who rely on their good looks and charisma rather than pure talent I can see how they want people back in the office where they can flex with their nice cars, suits, and fancy lifestyle to get their points across. For those that really do have the goods--virtual meetings work just fine.
Last time i was in a neighborhood like that the people there complained about being too broke for Christmas shopping. Every driveway had a new jaguar or porche etc. Year was 2000. Had a major influence on me for some reason ...
People have been replaced by automation for a long time. Bearer used to carry loads, then Ox drawn carts came along and replaced a lot of humans with a few animals. Then the steam of carts were replaced by one guy in a truck, .... Phone operators were replaced by phones with dials or buttons, etc.

I think it’s wise for all of us out in the workforce to spend some time analyzing our job tasks to learn if AI can do it better and/or in less time. AI is advancing so rapidly that those with a cavalier attitude toward the possibility of losing their jobs might just be surprised. You need to be looking over your shoulder. What looked like technology miles before us is now at our door. Be smart and grab every opportunity to learn about AI.
@@mikem4432 Thanks for commenting. AI cannot be applied everywhere and with equal results across all areas. At least, not at this time. I have identified tasks in my work where AI saves hours..stuff like creating an Excel report with pivot tales, outlining, storyboarding, etc. My point is that there may be a part or parts of your job that can be handled with AI. If so, wouldn’t you like to know what those tasks are, so you can stay ahead of the job reaper?
@@mikem4432 based on what I have seen, AI is impacting Nigerian essay writers who ghost write essays for U.S. college students. College students use AI to generate an essay. Then their college professor uses AI to detect whether their students' essay was AI generated.
I work 100% remotely and have for 8 years. I am glad my company figured out how to manage remote workers from the start. As a marketer, I can tell ya.. AI is the future.. it's not gonna stop. But it will add opportunity also so don't worry too much. Computers and automation already took jobs, this is just another change.
Any job requiring intellectual labor with no physical skill is under threat from AI. No one was even talking about this topic or knew anything about AI a year ago and it is already replacing 1000s of jobs. Compared to a computer humans are inherently fragile and intellectually inferior. AI will do a far better job than humans in a fraction of the time a human would be capable of. If you think this will add opportunity you are delusional. If I had a career in any intellectual field I would be terrified.
I'm a veteran IT worker working remote for 10 years. Remote work is not going away. It's just the narrative being pushed by big tech to get people back into the office so they don't lose billions on commercial real estate.
This is literally what I did. I hired a software engineer at $100,000 salary and was extensively clear this was not a remote work position. Once he started the job, he made every excuse not to come in. I gave him repeated warnings this isn’t work from home. He was fired in his 4th week. Best thing I ever did. His replacement is from India, works during our business hours, and is super happy to be making $25,000 per year, as most employers in India are paying $18,000/year. I’m not paying your lazy ass to work 2 hours from home and get paid 8. We’re not stupid. We know you’re lying about working
I started work as a mechanical engineer for a petroleum pipeline in 1970. I thank my lucky stars that there was a senior engineer there who was great at his job, was a great teacher, and enjoyed teaching a green fresh college graduate how to be a pipeline engineer. I can't imagine learning as I did as a remote worker at home.
I am good at my job, very good. But my wife died in March 2021 from a very aggressive breast cancer, and I am now raising our young son. He is now 7. I live over an hour from my office. My wife worked full-time taking care of our son after he was born. Now I constantly fear I will have to go into the office, which is impossible now that my wife died. I will become unemployed if that happens. My immediate supervisor understands my situation and likes my work output. But people above her? Not sure.
My company is pushing us to come back to the office 3 days a week. 3 years working at home was a wonderful perk which I never took advantage of. Think of the folks who have to pay daycare now and the cost of commuting, eating out, dry cleaning bills, etc. Corp and gov aren't our friends.
@@Dreamer-by4nk Reread my post. No whining from me. I was speaking for others who have to bear the cost of child care and such after not needing to pay for it for 3 years and now the cost of living.

With increase in lawlessness safety is also another reason to continue to work from home. Especially if the areas surrounding the workplace gotten less safe during the pandemic and thereafter. Who wants to be assaulted by some vagrant on drugs while walking to the office from the car or bus stop?
I cannot imagine how anyone can work at home and have kids at home. There's no way productivity is going to be optimal with children. Plus child is going to suffer is mom or dad are preoccupied with work🤔
I'm willing to bet that if you been working remote and you do actually "work" and get it done, they won't force going back in. And not all jobs require in office presence. We always worked remote to some degree. Some if usvwere 100% remote. We always relied heavily on conference calls too because most teams are scattered between states. So it's really the sales team our company prefers be in office. Understandably so.
It's hard to take anyone serious wearing that Metaverse goggle. They look like number 5 from short circuit. When Mark Zuckerberg wore that when demonstrating it he looked very indignant.
I've been working remotely for 30+ years. I'm a translator: client sends me a job and a deadline, I can work whenever I want as long as I meet the deadline. But way back when, when word processors were coming out, everyone was saying, "Oh, computers are going to be able to do the translating and will put you out of work. Well, never happened. The computers are much better at it these days, but they're still not good enough. Maybe AI can do it, maybe.
Of all the issues talked about regularly home warranty never comes up. We bought our first home in 2019 and sold it in 2022. We had a home warranty the whole time and we saved thousands on repairs. The home warranty company helped us replace an old electric water heater with a on demand gas water heater. The home warranty company also helped us replace an old hvac that used electric resistance for heat with a heat pump hvac. It was not all good and we had some problems with them too, but we did save a lot of money over the years.
It’s so funny how the employees think they dictate terms. Yes, if its part of your job description to work from home, thats different. But mostly, these are Self entitled a-holes who want no accountability. Just fire them all.
As there should be. Quality of life is so important for home values and the quality of people who vote for school board members. Little HOA Karen rules help keep out the trash with the camper, boat, kids tents and wagons and other junk strewn all over their lawns. They can live in a mobile home park somewhere.
Home warranties are awesome! I’m an investment property owner and a realtor! I have gotten thousands of dollars of new appliances and hvac systems because of having a home warranty on my properties!

AI scares the hell out of me. I read an article about a military exercise where the drone turned on the operator and destroyed the communications tower. The drone was not firing actual ammunition but was in simulation mode. But it goes to show AI cannot yet be trusted. I do not need a computer driving my car for me. I do not need a computer to decide how to live my life.
It’s been 3 flippin years! People are still wearing masks here. Business still have plexiglass dividers when you pay. Everyone’s trigerred and filled with social anxiety.

Nobody wants to move to that 3rd world country-state anymore. Just a dump full of invasives and other invaders. I always pictured myself moving to Fl when I retired. Now I have no desire to live in that dump. I will stay and shovel snow.
I've been remote for over 10 years now, and definitely won't be going back to in-office. My employer hired me as 100% remote. Hell, I've been employed with them for 4 years and have only spent 5 minutes in the office one time to pick up a new laptop. In the field of development, if you're not offering remote, you'll only get bottom of the barrel talent. There aren't enough developers already, and way too many employers have no problem with it. So a company has their choice between talented remote developers, or inexperienced in-office developers that will just leave for a remote job when they do get experience.
I was hired 100% remote as well and I've told them over and over that I'm not going back to the office. It's even written into my contract that I work from a "home office". The hours wasted commutting in traffic is just something I will not do again.
I'm not driving to an office anymore. I don't need to go to the office. I can do everything from home, and if they don't like that, I'll look for a new job. That's simple! They are not about to stimulate the economy with my suffering. If this is what the U.S. is all about, I will do something else. It's ridiculous that I need to commute 50 miles to an office when I can do it from home. Also, the gas prices alone are enough reason for me not to go to an office. I feel less stressed working from home, and I'm also more helpful to my family
@@lizzie2301 right??? Simple world you live in. A lot of ppl have to commute. All jobs aren’t nearby, and all jobs aren’t in affordable areas. Life is more complicated than you suggest. I live in a town of 90% commuters.
In our area, the builders of empty land is changing their minds on what types of businesses we are going to have.

I work in IT. I work in an office, but I don't need to be in the office at all. I am many times more productive when I do work remote because I am not disrupted by chatter or things that are not important. I can focus on work and work on preventitive measures involving security when working remote. Going to the office is many times counter productive.
I'm the same way. I lost so much productivity at my new job being back in the office full time. When my boss lets me wfh he noticed real quick how much more I get done. Thankfully they are going to start allowing 3 days/week wfh soon. I save so much money and stress from traffic road rage.
@@patwildgen4259 you don’t like coworkers lunch 🥙 happy hour after work with office friends break’s on coffee office if have one but bad part traffic driving time getting early 😂
Absolutely-- the new trend is replacing humans with AI and robotics. The more dehumanized, the better corporations like it. Eventually, if they ever perfect self-driving vehicles, even truckers and taxi services will be replaced. At WalMart, cashiers are replaced with self checkout stations. Same with fast food. This trend has been going on for a while. Switchboard operators, for example, lost their jobs due to automation and no longer exist. Automobile factory workers are being replaced with robotics. HUMANS ARE DISPENSABLE.
I was in Best Buy last night for the first time in 7 months and they completely remodeled their store to look like an Apple Store with a Genius Bar. They have Pokémon cards in clear boxes for $3.99 and they are in locked boxes
I have a colleague who is involved with AI, and he tells me that there is a long way to go before all of the kinks are out. A lot of fields are simply going to require ACTUAL, as opposed to ARTIFICIAL intelligence.
Remote IT worker here. While AI is changing a lot of things, I dont have any worries about losing my job. There is still far too much human interaction for my job to be completely automated.
This is just another cry for trying to convince workers to come in. First it was collaborating, then production dropping, then it was outsourcing, now it's AI. I don't know how some people, like the guy in the video can't see through the BS
I am about to take a full remote work job. I am a structural engineer and the type of jobs I design is a long ways from being designed by AI. And I can tell you an engineer just starting is not going to do well learning remote. Another thing, I want to develop AI to do my type of work. You are always spot on with your videos!
You are wrong: I am a fellow engineer at a fortune 100 corporation, and I've successfully led both new high tech product development and mentored new college grads (with BSEE and MSEE).
@Tom you are an exception to the rule. Being a genius, you don't have to follow the path that must engineers need to do. Congratulations my friend. But I can tell you, there are few engineers who admire arrogance and doesn't make good for team projects....but again as an engineer you know as well as me, there are always exceptions to every single rule.
After 2.5 years of fully remote work, I now go in 2-3 days per week. I'm fortunate that I live less than five miles from my office, but my "in office" days still cost me at least an additional 1.5 hours of time per day (commute, packing lunch, coworkers stopping to chat, etc.). I honestly am way more productive when I work remotely, so try to keep my in office days to 2 per week. I truly feel for those that have a super long commute time.
You might think you are more productive but there are measures and they have been dropping like a rock since this nonsense started. The employers want the workers back in the office so some work can finally get done after 3 years. Not even sure if they are re trainable after being unsupervised for so long.
I too am more productive. I lose 3-4, hrs minimum, out of a day if I have to go in. I don’t know what the measures are, but I do know what my bottom line is, and it’s my work product.
@@censoredeveryday3320 bingo! I'd be out the door if, after 3+ years, I've been WFH with terrific annual ratings.Nope, family and time is too valuable now
Glitch in the matrix at 18:40. That’s $20k per year in property taxes. Rent is typically in the range of 1% of a home’s value, so that home, being offered for rent at $10k per month is likely a $1 million home. And that’s reflected also in the assessed value being $1,076,000 ($240k per year would be quite expensive property tax on a $1 million home).
Employers are feeling like they are not getting their money's worth with employees working their "side gigs" and ironing clothes while on the company dime. If I was an employer I would need a camera pointed at the desk of the employee so I can determine if they are even working or not.
The Veteran's Benefits Administration is hiring remote workers like crazy. However, the remote workers they are hiring already work for the Veteran's Benefits Administration. Thankfully, I work remote 100% but used to work at the Boise Regional Office. It is great working from home. Not going to lie about it.
Sooner or later our leaders will be compelled to understand that superfluous jobs are less important than overall productivity. Artificial scarcity is the source of many widespread issues.
AI will replace jobs, just like rotary telephones did when we still had switch boards, most jobs that will be replaced were redundant, non customer facing roles. People still want to talk to people like them, and AI has many years if not decades until it gets there. AI also can't solve complex situations, but requires a data set to know how to respond.
I keep praying that AI replaces at least fifty to ninety percent of my workload. I'll even take the pay cut to only be stressed out and in stress induced pain 40 to 60 hours a week 😆. Seriously though, we can use some good AI at my job so we can shorten the lag time in our processes from an unacceptable 90 days to a manageable two weeks and only be 11 days out of standard.
Sounds like you need a new job, not just a new toy to play with at work. This guy has a week of "cyphering" math problems to come up with this. You rock JETHRO!!
My company ended remote work six months ago. I don't think many people bought homes in other areas based on the temporary remote work. So I don't see increased home sales due to ending remote work.
I work in Healthcare Advertising and a lot of our clients have gone back to hybrid. As we try to match our pharma clients, starting next week, anyone within about a 1.5 hour commute will need to go in 2-3 days a week. As I officially am based from the New York office but live in a suburb of Philly, I am not required to go in, as I am over 2 hours away in good traffic. I was hired as full-time remote. I have a team of 5, and only one lives within the mandated area to have to go in 3 days a week. It will definitely be interesting. I’ll try to head in occasionally now that the weather is nice. I went in a few times last year in the fall and it was empty. I would go to the office once or twice a week if I had to, probably back to back days, but if it was mandatory I would want to expense an overnight accommodation at a nearby hotel. I would also want to expense the Amtrak train fare. I wouldn’t have a problem going in a couple of times a week if they allowed us to expense that. Since that’s not being offered and the cost going there is off my own back, I’d be open to maybe once every month or two. But there’s no requirement because I’m too far away as are most of my team, and they don’t want to pay that for everyone who lives outside of the mandated areas. So I’m fortunate that my distance from the office means I stay remote.
There needs to be a property tax revolt in Miami/Dade. Those taxes are insanely outrageous for the value of a home. Rented property I can understand but homesteaded. Crazy

You dont like floods, dont move to Fl or you will pay more than the value of your house to insure it.
I never understood how any company thought an employee would be more efficient working from home. People goof off at "the office". 'Pretending to work' is a walk in the park, when your "working from home".
There is gotta be another reason. Must be some kind of government welfare program. Maybe they are forigners and Biden gave them a bunch of money. Who knows.
They need the old employees to come back to work to train the new employees. Management does not know how to do the jobs. They probably realized that when they started hiring new people. There was no one to train them.
Employment contracts don’t hold up . My wife went thru this with Wells Fargo and now Cigna is doing the same. People who have worked remote for 15 years are being called back so it really has nothing to do with wfh.
As housing and rental prices soar, more people are opting for roommates and sharing their home with others to save money. This will make more homes available for sale

HAPPY SATURDAY MICHAEL, ALWAYS A PLEASURE BROTHER 👍❤
My ex wife used to remote work. Spent more time going to Walmart, playing on Facebook, etc than she did working. Government job and after Covid, I’m sure she even stepped up her sham game.
Amex still uses real folks with stellar customer service and product knowledge. Stateside as well.
Who cares? I bought lemon cookies yesterday and they tasted like lemons. Freaking rocket scientists we are, huh? Some companies(Amex) charge huge annual fees to afford to pay workers better.
Amex has garbage customer service with strong accents
They only have stateside CS for high end customers or overflow
Amex uses a company called ttec, they outsource their CX with agents from a company that specializes in this, same with usaa, Bank of America…a large majority of big companies don’t have their own customer service agents…
Based on my 40+ years of working white-collar jobs, experienced employees are NOT more productive in the office. Just the opposite. The bosses want people back in the office because the bosses don't do anything and have little or no value. Management needs folks in the office so they can have useless and boring in-person meetings so that management can feel they add value. Young/new people working in the office is good so that they can be trained. But 20+ year experienced white-collar employees can do their job anywhere that has high-speed internet.
Not where I work. Some of the oldest ones are the slowest and get the least done and the younger workers have to pick up their slack (for less $).
Amen 🙌🏽
Don't think it would work well for accounting. No supervision is inviting embezzlement.
@@KillPill6233 100 percent; working in the office is a complete waste of time, so many more distractions than working from home. To be honest, my team meets once per week and we can get a lot of things done on the white board, but we only meet for 4 hours and we should probably meet every other week--every week still too much.
It's high time to flush/fire/retire the mid-level shoulder surfer managers that add absolutely no value.
I have so much more energy and creative abilities working from home; my commute is 3 hours/day and it completely drains me. By the time I make it to the office I am ready to go home. I pound coffee to stay motivated.
In the end, the talent will opt for remote work and the companies forcing employees back to the office will loose market share as they try to compete with B grade employees who lack the talent to work from home. Also, the office lease/rent adds up, those that can field a remote workforce will be able to operate at lower costs.
For managers who rely on their good looks and charisma rather than pure talent I can see how they want people back in the office where they can flex with their nice cars, suits, and fancy lifestyle to get their points across. For those that really do have the goods--virtual meetings work just fine.
@@nancysmith2389 It's just asking for it down the line once the organized white collar crooks get their fingers in it.

I think it’s wise for all of us out in the workforce to spend some time analyzing our job tasks to learn if AI can do it better and/or in less time. AI is advancing so rapidly that those with a cavalier attitude toward the possibility of losing their jobs might just be surprised. You need to be looking over your shoulder. What looked like technology miles before us is now at our door. Be smart and grab every opportunity to learn about AI.
I have yet to see any AI actually put one thought together.. its just algorithims with big data stretch indexes at best.. it creates giberish.
@@mikem4432 Thanks for commenting. AI cannot be applied everywhere and with equal results across all areas. At least, not at this time. I have identified tasks in my work where AI saves hours..stuff like creating an Excel report with pivot tales, outlining, storyboarding, etc. My point is that there may be a part or parts of your job that can be handled with AI. If so, wouldn’t you like to know what those tasks are, so you can stay ahead of the job reaper?

I work 100% remotely and have for 8 years. I am glad my company figured out how to manage remote workers from the start. As a marketer, I can tell ya.. AI is the future.. it's not gonna stop. But it will add opportunity also so don't worry too much. Computers and automation already took jobs, this is just another change.
Any job requiring intellectual labor with no physical skill is under threat from AI. No one was even talking about this topic or knew anything about AI a year ago and it is already replacing 1000s of jobs. Compared to a computer humans are inherently fragile and intellectually inferior. AI will do a far better job than humans in a fraction of the time a human would be capable of. If you think this will add opportunity you are delusional. If I had a career in any intellectual field I would be terrified.

This is literally what I did. I hired a software engineer at $100,000 salary and was extensively clear this was not a remote work position. Once he started the job, he made every excuse not to come in. I gave him repeated warnings this isn’t work from home. He was fired in his 4th week. Best thing I ever did.
His replacement is from India, works during our business hours, and is super happy to be making $25,000 per year, as most employers in India are paying $18,000/year.
I’m not paying your lazy ass to work 2 hours from home and get paid 8. We’re not stupid. We know you’re lying about working

I started work as a mechanical engineer for a petroleum pipeline in 1970.

I am good at my job, very good. But my wife died in March 2021 from a very aggressive breast cancer, and I am now raising our young son. He is now 7. I live over an hour from my office. My wife worked full-time taking care of our son after he was born. Now I constantly fear I will have to go into the office, which is impossible now that my wife died. I will become unemployed if that happens. My immediate supervisor understands my situation and likes my work output. But people above her? Not sure.
My company is pushing us to come back to the office 3 days a week. 3 years working at home was a wonderful perk which I never took advantage of. Think of the folks who have to pay daycare now and the cost of commuting, eating out, dry cleaning bills, etc. Corp and gov aren't our friends.
Think of the ones that have been going in the last 3 yrs with no perks. Risking our lives and our families. It hasn’t been easy for us. Quit whining.

With increase in lawlessness safety is also another reason to continue to work from home. Especially if the areas surrounding the workplace gotten less safe during the pandemic and thereafter. Who wants to be assaulted by some vagrant on drugs while walking to the office from the car or bus stop?

I'm willing to bet that if you been working remote and you do actually "work" and get it done, they won't force going back in. And not all jobs require in office presence. We always worked remote to some degree. Some if usvwere 100% remote. We always relied heavily on conference calls too because most teams are scattered between states. So it's really the sales team our company prefers be in office. Understandably so.

I've been working remotely for 30+ years. I'm a translator: client sends me a job and a deadline, I can work whenever I want as long as I meet the deadline. But way back when, when word processors were coming out, everyone was saying, "Oh, computers are going to be able to do the translating and will put you out of work. Well, never happened. The computers are much better at it these days, but they're still not good enough. Maybe AI can do it, maybe.
I've been working from home for 10 years and don't plan to stop. I can always reduce my rate a bit and I'm sure i'll be able to continue.
Of all the issues talked about regularly home warranty never comes up. We bought our first home in 2019 and sold it in 2022. We had a home warranty the whole time and we saved thousands on repairs. The home warranty company helped us replace an old electric water heater with a on demand gas water heater. The home warranty company also helped us replace an old hvac that used electric resistance for heat with a heat pump hvac. It was not all good and we had some problems with them too, but we did save a lot of money over the years.
It’s so funny how the employees think they dictate terms. Yes, if its part of your job description to work from home, thats different. But mostly, these are Self entitled a-holes who want no accountability. Just fire them all.

I've been remote for over 10 years now, and definitely won't be going back to in-office. My employer hired me as 100% remote. Hell, I've been employed with them for 4 years and have only spent 5 minutes in the office one time to pick up a new laptop.
In the field of development, if you're not offering remote, you'll only get bottom of the barrel talent. There aren't enough developers already, and way too many employers have no problem with it. So a company has their choice between talented remote developers, or inexperienced in-office developers that will just leave for a remote job when they do get experience.
I was hired 100% remote as well and I've told them over and over that I'm not going back to the office. It's even written into my contract that I work from a "home office". The hours wasted commutting in traffic is just something I will not do again.

Absolutely-- the new trend is replacing humans with AI and robotics. The more dehumanized, the better corporations like it. Eventually, if they ever perfect self-driving vehicles, even truckers and taxi services will be replaced. At WalMart, cashiers are replaced with self checkout stations. Same with fast food. This trend has been going on for a while. Switchboard operators, for example, lost their jobs due to automation and no longer exist. Automobile factory workers are being replaced with robotics. HUMANS ARE DISPENSABLE.

After 2.5 years of fully remote work, I now go in 2-3 days per week. I'm fortunate that I live less than five miles from my office, but my "in office" days still cost me at least an additional 1.5 hours of time per day (commute, packing lunch, coworkers stopping to chat, etc.). I honestly am way more productive when I work remotely, so try to keep my in office days to 2 per week. I truly feel for those that have a super long commute time.
You might think you are more productive but there are measures and they have been dropping like a rock since this nonsense started. The employers want the workers back in the office so some work can finally get done after 3 years. Not even sure if they are re trainable after being unsupervised for so long.
I too am more productive. I lose 3-4, hrs minimum, out of a day if I have to go in. I don’t know what the measures are, but I do know what my bottom line is, and it’s my work product.

Glitch in the matrix at 18:40. That’s $20k per year in property taxes. Rent is typically in the range of 1% of a home’s value, so that home, being offered for rent at $10k per month is likely a $1 million home. And that’s reflected also in the assessed value being $1,076,000 ($240k per year would be quite expensive property tax on a $1 million home).
Working from home has crushed our city-location communities.
Employers are feeling like they are not getting their money's worth with employees working their "side gigs" and ironing clothes while on the company dime. If I was an employer I would need a camera pointed at the desk of the employee so I can determine if they are even working or not.

AI will replace jobs, just like rotary telephones did when we still had switch boards, most jobs that will be replaced were redundant, non customer facing roles. People still want to talk to people like them, and AI has many years if not decades until it gets there. AI also can't solve complex situations, but requires a data set to know how to respond.
I keep praying that AI replaces at least fifty to ninety percent of my workload. I'll even take the pay cut to only be stressed out and in stress induced pain 40 to 60 hours a week 😆.

I work in Healthcare Advertising and a lot of our clients have gone back to hybrid. As we try to match our pharma clients, starting next week, anyone within about a 1.5 hour commute will need to go in 2-3 days a week. As I officially am based from the New York office but live in a suburb of Philly, I am not required to go in, as I am over 2 hours away in good traffic. I was hired as full-time remote. I have a team of 5, and only one lives within the mandated area to have to go in 3 days a week. It will definitely be interesting. I’ll try to head in occasionally now that the weather is nice. I went in a few times last year in the fall and it was empty. I would go to the office once or twice a week if I had to, probably back to back days, but if it was mandatory I would want to expense an overnight accommodation at a nearby hotel. I would also want to expense the Amtrak train fare. I wouldn’t have a problem going in a couple of times a week if they allowed us to expense that. Since that’s not being offered and the cost going there is off my own back, I’d be open to maybe once every month or two. But there’s no requirement because I’m too far away as are most of my team, and they don’t want to pay that for everyone who lives outside of the mandated areas. So I’m fortunate that my distance from the office means I stay remote.
I use to work from home a lot, and I often screwed off.
