I would be perfectly happy never going back to work. I would continue to be much healthier. Every single task required and expected of me can be done at home, and done better at home. I’d like to pretend that things will actually change for workers for the better, but we all know that’s a pitiful joke.
Because for some reason, it’s “necessary” for someone’s ass to be sitting in a chair staring at a screen for 8+ hours every day in ridiculous, impractical clothes. Only brief glimpses of sunlight and fresh air. Never mind that it doesn’t take nearly that long to get the work done and people are far more efficient at home. Never mind people having quick and access to the resources they need at home.
Yeah, I get it. There are exceptions. I know too well how internet isn’t reliable or guaranteed in rural areas, and I realize some people have kids that distract them, etc.
But something’s got to give. It has to. I’ve watched my parents work their lives away and I absolutely will not go down that path. You get punished for doing the right things anyway.
