Yeah, I don’t understand why this is downvoted either… do people not think women’s rights are in jeopardy? I mean, if they don’t live in the US maybe nothing has changed in their world so this doesn’t impact them. Being American, Roe v Wade being overturned is terrifying to me.

Ikr! Like everything is 10x more expensive nowadays

Should higher! We need this to survive!

Yep. In china, everything you do once you set foot out of ur home is recorded.

Affordable home is a myth.

I am severely asthmatic and if I have to walk through some employee's cigarette smoke to enter a business, I turn around and take my business elsewhere. Not worth it.

YES PLEASE!

a 'stupid tax' if ever there was one.

Just stayed in this thing, - hotel they are calling it. Didn't have to take the garbage out, strip the room, pay a "cleaning" fee or feed anyone's cat. Hope they catch on.

Say that again... I got distracted at "Att..."

I disagree. I come on boardpanda on a regular basis and I find my faith in humanity restored regularly

Let me guess, this is in the US?

I still buy DVDs/BluRays. I like actually owning the thing and being able to reliably access it for the next 20-50 years. Only series and movies I've rewatched at least once and want to watch again though.

Without cash our society would be far worse off

My local op shop has two buildings, one is the usual cheap things and cheap clothes and the other is the higher end stuff like vintage clothes or collectibles. It works well.

I've heard they've installed a revolving door at #10 Downing 😉

And the amount in savings accounts

Unless absolutely required, coming to office should be optional.

I was hoping so, but in my country many employers feel generous, if they allow one day of working remote per week. This was how I was working before Covid.

I am only required to go into the office twice a month. Sometimes I go in more for work events. I love WFH but also like going into the office now and then to see my coworkers and to get out of the house.

I like to do 50/50. Only working from home is boring, it’s nice to see and work with my colleagues.

For the fact that workplace harassment is easier to conduct in an office than at home, working remotely is great. You also save on fuel and public transport fares, you don't need to be scared about the unpredictability of road accidents happening and either taking your life or making you late, you don't need to worry about perverts or people stealing your belongings, nobody will steal your lunch, you don't have to deal with workplace drama, you're in a better environment, you can work at your own pace and everything you need is at home. Those are just SOME of the benefits of working from home!

I wish more attention and praise would be highlighted to emphasize the positives WFH creates other than just my dog’s happiness and my sanity. Why don’t we measure the pollution reduction and better air quality? Why aren’t we praising each other for saving gas, reducing energy consumption…. Cities should be thanking employers for this perk as it has reduced car accidents, extended the life of our roads, lessened crime and traffic violations so cops can go solve real crimes. My employer should be sharing the good news of our office expenses decrease…coffee, paper, supplies, but bigger savings too - electricity, rent! Once lease expires, most office enivornment workplaces will be able to utilize less space- savings. Parking.

That's not an office, that's a concentration camp.

this will be really bad for some people. working home being alone all the time. recepe for depression

Should be CUBICLES....I've worked in several offices who had increasingly more confining cubicles cause that was popular....

Unfortunately, not in my country. I was working from home for a bit over a year, I was the happiest I've ever been. Since August we were called back to the office. For no reason whatsover (of course from my point of view).

You see an office, I see ground zero for covid outbreak

Told people I worked with in 2010 that the full time job would become a thing reserved for management. Regular staff would be replaced by multiple part timers it order to have more flexible coverage and save on benefits. And here we are...

Who in the hell whats to fight traffic to go to work pissed off!

I've never worked in an office. The only time I ever hear anybody that works in an office like this in cubicles and stuff are like representatives and stuff for companies

I work in IT, and this will be a bit of a nightmare for us. A lot of issues are solved simply by us walking over to the computer and clicking a button. Having them working in office makes it easier for us to do that. Otherwise we'd have to travel all over the place. And you'd be surprised how many people don't know how to do simple computer tasks.

THIS! THIS needs to be realized by management everywhere!

Home workers are the first on any chopping block. Get back to work lazy bums

I live in a 24hr city, and I feel for those who work nights and struggle to do their shopping now.

Yup, Sitcoms are fading in general. Or are already completely gone. At least good ones. Maybe because you can't have dark-humored, sarcastic content anymore. Imagine "Married with Children" going on air nowadays. My favorite Sitcom...

Yup, with the new law in 2024 these are a thing of the past in the EU. USB-C for any brand. Not just Apple.

not in africa, we have too many unemployed people. We need job creation.

Nope, I think real menus are a hill many will choose to die on.
