    That’s one (of many) reasons I don’t want to give up remote work.

    Bosses say that remote work misses “the human element” and “face to face” time.

    Yes, and I couldn’t be more happy about it.

      This is why, once I got my electrician license, I went to work for myself. You know how god-awful it is working with blue collar men in the South 50hrs/week? The less I deal with other tradespeople, the better. Yall can keep your company jobs, I take enough work to put some money back and enjoy the rest of my time. The less I hear from out of touch Boomers complaining about their queer grandkids the better my life is.

        The same people who claim to be the side of Christ.

      I’ve been working remotely since 2015 but at my current job the majority of employees do head into the office. I still attend monthly meetings and some other company-wide meetings virtually and I’m always astounded how much time is wasted drudging up the same complaints month after month.

      I’m usually just working (coding) through it all; I just want to write code all day and end each day in peace.
