>She continued, “I think we will forever think about the word ‘essential’ in a different way. And, when we were told to stay home, they got up, got dressed, and went out into the world, risking their lives, to drive garbage trucks, to work in warehouses, to work in grocery stores, to work in hospitals. Often doing invisible, but yes, essential work, and I struggle with it because I’m not sure that we treat them like they’re essential.” No, those are just jobs that can't be done remotely. That doesn't make them any more essential than sales/marketing or less. A properly operating company will live on if one person dies because they got hit by a bus because in a properly operating company, no one person is essential. We are just gears in a machine.
