You mean to tell me, three days a week, they have to:

  • wake up extra hours early
  • pack a lunch or plan to pay for one
  • put on hard pants
  • drive their own vehicle in traffic, with their own gas and wear/tear
  • pay for their own parking.
  • do the exact same work in their designated space
  • drive back home in traffic 9 hours later

All for the same pay and several hours away from my family, home, or bed?

No fucking thanks.

Going remote was the best fucking raise I ever got, and it didn't cost them a dime.
