Let's work from home when the kids are sick, thank you great company that I am allowed to slave away for you while taking care of my sick kid! It isn't even a US company it seems.
Edit: guess I should have posted to unpopularopinions instead!
I just wanted to add I cut off the photo of the person on purpose. She is posting that with her sick child in her lap and that photo has been taken by some other person, not a selfie. If you are not feeling that the content of the post is bad, you hopefully still agree that presenting your sick child in an almost professionally looking photo to the world for LinkedIn clout is not great.
What you say is correct, and nothing of what you say I see in the posted screenshot. That very much feels like an advertisement for "return to office but just like not 100%, only like 90%, you gotta understand, man"
You're making the comparisons from different spots, so of course the outcomes look vastly different.
You're looking at it from a utopia, where the world is as it should be already. From where you metaphorically are, this looks like a shit position, because it's... Well, worse. Objectively.
I, and I suspect the guy you replied to, are looking at it from the perspective of what we actually have now, in our lives. From that perspective, this kind of attitude - of allowing some degree of flexibility, ability to dynamically change your work life balance as you need to is unheard of, practically. It's SO much better than what the majority (in the US at least) see. And it's so incredibly easy to achieve. Having an attitude like this is just setting the bar of the bare minimum a bit higher, and that's good for everyone. We keep doing that, we may eventually get to utopia.
