While some companies have adjusted well to the new remote world, many are not willing to do so. I guessed last year that the "let everyone work remote!" would last just until things cleared up and bosses got antsy. Now that the government FUD about the plandemic is starting to fall away, companies are starting to tell people to get back in here, and all of the snowflakes are crying "But you said we could work from home foreverrrrrrrrrrr!"

After all, if your boss can't see your butt is in that seat, you obviously aren't working.

There are a lot of articles coming out as well where people are quitting on the spot or switching to remote jobs. A lot of people moved away from the big cities and have no intention of going back or dealing with a boss that requires ass-in-chair workers.

I've seen the "I'm quitting!" stories as well. It will be interesting to see how this all plays out.

Hopefully a collapse of the current paradigm and an uprise in the gig/small business economy.

an uprise in the gig/small business economy.

Which actually means everyone begging for scraps and they bid each other lower and lower.

Companies didnt buy/build or aren't renting expensive ass office space for nothing. Those leases are typically very long term and nobody wants to downsize the physical office due to half the staff or more being remote. Obviously the larger the company, the bigger this issue becomes as well.
