Yeah, A lot of jobs can be done remotely and even most of the companies requiring the "return to office" are compromising with hybrid 2-3 days in-office per week (some even less only requiring ~4-6 days per month). Companies don't want to pay for officespace no one wants to use. Employees have in-mass without "organizing" decided they don't like to commute and are sick of forced-socialization that comes from in-office settings.

From the post: "The share of workers being called back to the office has flatlined, suggesting the pandemic-era phenomenon of widespread remote work has become a permanent fixture of the U.S. labor market, economists said.

“Return to the office is dead,” Nick Bloom, an economics professor at Stanford University and expert on the work-from-home revolution, wrote this week."

depends on the job... I dont need to be in an office surrounded by meatsacks and mouthbreathers to build comprehensive threat models, perform attack pattern analysis or build a quantitative risk profiles - these are real-world skills that are transferable to real-world applications and survival scenarios. Maybe taking time to run a quantification of risk isn't practicable, but knowing how to frame the risk and recognize threat scenarios based on modeling can quickly change a dire situation into a survivable one - it's all about problem solving for the sake of resiliency. Folks know to avoid niggers because we recognize the threat from years of ingrained modeling.

To that end, before I did this work, I did all on-the-line manufacturing from raw mats to finished 3-phase electromagnets; airborne grunt for the army; all types of field-related dirty work; we grow our own produce during the 'warm' season; can and preserve our own produce; etc etc. What i do on the clock helps me to frame planting times, watering cycles, bug infestations and impact; canning cycles; threat of bacterial introduction; etc. I love what I do on the clock - it makes my off-the-clock precise.

I often think collecting skills is as important a prep as collecting goods.
