Felt pretty ripped off when covid started. Everyone else was either working from home or had time off work. Construction workers continued to work in the exact same conditions except now there are hand washing stations on most job sites.
same. grocery store here. did like 60 days in a row in the beginning. was wishing for covid pre-vax just to get some time off. now we all just expect to get covid every 3 months
My sister works with kids and has been sick with covid five times already.
Exactly what does the CDC expect to happen once long covid starts batting at polio numbers, where millions are disabled?

Hope that the "health" industry can bleed Medicare and Medicare dry so they can be privatized.
This is several different "In bad country!...." jokes at once. In bad country you are expected to work without days off while catching a preventable disease repeatedly until it leaves you disabled. Bad country has no social safety net for workers and leaves the disabled to fend for themselves against an extremely hostile bureaucracy. In bad country even being homeless is illegal and your punishment is being sent to a slave factory to make helmets for the imperial army.
Just waiting for the day that Netflix and McDonald's no longer keeps the drooling dipshit masses from igniting the powder keg
It's true, I still hate having the surplus value of my labor stolen even if I get to stay home
just started an office job after leaving another office job and the only people complaining about working from home are over 40
I kind of do hate working from home. I've got shitty internet that keeps dropping, and I live with my parents/siblings who are loud and distracting, and always eavesdropping. Plus, I'm just sitting in the same corner of the house from sun-up to sun-down.
It's still better than a 2+ hour round trip commute, so I take all the WFH days I can, but I still don't exactly like it...
Full WFH can mean ability to afford a larger flat also though, since they're no longer balancing flat size with having to spend 10-15 hours a week commuting
The only people I know who have ever talked about hating WFH since the pandemic started have been Boomers and Gen X who hate their kids
Imma be honest, I hate working from home and in the office
Especially when I'm just making money for some asshole I'll never meet/have no connection to whatsoever
I wanna work from home but idk what i can even do that i wouldn't hate. I don't want to engage with customers ever again in my life, I don't have any special marketable skills, I don't think I could deal with working in the insurance industry even if I could get a non customer facing role. Idk. Maybe data entry? Are there data entry jobs where they just send me a bunch of shit and I just digitize my stack of work and nobody ever bothers me as long as I'm getting it done? Because i want something like that. Give work, leave me alone, receive payment
I would do terrible things for a job like this where I can maybe avoid dying of plague
CAD/CAM work is always available. One to two year degree. Can you visualize shit in 3D?
HVAC to landscaping, CAD is everywhere.
I enjoy WFH but I don't enjoy the fact that corporate used this to get rid of the office completely so I have nowhere to go when I am on a call-shift and want to just sit in an empty office and work at 2am smh
I hate boomers thinking they can speak for me! I hate boomers thinking they can speak for me!
How many times do I need to say it? I actually do want to have my own house, I actually do want to have all the things that are now luxuries for the rich today that were not seen as status symbols in the 60s.
