    People assume that covid was super miserable for everyone… But a global plague is preferable to pointless forced attendance at “employment” for many many people. I know lots of people who miss it. And much of that progress has been completely reversed.

      People forget about how much it felt like labor and employment were about to be revolutionized for the better back then. It really seemed like employers were finally going to be forced to adapt to better conditions.

      Now it feels like that’s all being undone. How many companies still have their remote work options? How many people are willing to leave their jobs for something better now?
