    If you’re in a tech job, working from home should be the default. If you’re in a service job, working on-site is a requirement. This can have a negative impact on a company overall because you may have both in your workforce, and the ability to work from home breeds resentment and impacts morale.

    Amidst COVID, our office workers were told to return to work. The reasoning was a perceived inequity held by the field workers toward those that sit at a desk all day. Nevermind that having everyone return up’s everyone’s chance for getting infected. Truth be told, those forced to come in would rather risk that than be left out.

      I hope people demanded an eye-watering raise, citing the inequity in remuneration between the workers and C-suite.

      Oh - you don’t care about equity after all? Why do we need to come back again?
