They are going to have to pay me shitloads to go back to that traffic. Goodbye Vancouver if they force it upon me. Not worth it. Remote work thank you! I will travel and work.

Dan offers some advice on where she might find it.
You sat across the bar from me. I looked up and we caught each other's eye and both smiled....

It's all fun and games until they start hiring people in India to do your job for 1/5 the salary.

They won't pay you shitloads to go back to the office, they will fire you and hire an offshore worker to do twice your job at half the pay.

The tawdry behaviour of some people in offices. I'm surprised that alone didn't expedite the transition to working from home.

Fought my company for 2 years for the right to work at home (because of disability). I was actually doing a better job without the hour's commute each way. Had to give up in the end. Now they're all working at home because of covid. Joke's on me, I guess.

Me too. My former employer refused to allow me to continue to work from home even though I’d proven to them (by doing it just fine for 2 months When I first became disabled) that it was entirely possible. Instead of getting with the modern times and accepting that many, many jobs can be done perfectly well remotely, they instead spent a huge amount of money getting more office space and renovating it. It’s sat empty for months now. I’m here at home laughing. While I work for another more progressive company : ).

You've made my day! So good to hear someone was successful. I even filed a human rights case but it was a farce. Not worth the time/effort/stress.
Seriously
