Glassdoor has gone fully remote after realizing that remote jobs posted on their site got 50 percent more applicants and ones with better qualifications. https://www.utimes.pitt.edu/news/study-return-office
This is the ONE good thing Covid brought about. Lots of company employees never realized the place they work for already had the infrastructure in place for almost EVERYONE to work from home and even BYOD.
When they found out they were like holy shit, I've been living a fucking lie.
I've been remote for 13 years and I'm waaay more productive.
Going to the office is a scam. I spent about five years living in hotels and airplanes, didn't affect my "productivity".
If you're hiring a people that *need* to be stuffed into a cubicle inside an office so you can 'keep an eye on them' you're absolutely hiring the wrong people.

Exactly. I was *so* productive working from home. Not that I’m not productive now, but BSing with co-workers takes a lot more time than I had remembered.
On the plus side, I’m getting used to talking to people again 😂
@evamarie I cannot even fathom what that's like.
Zoom and Slack are great. But they're on my terms.
And I can work with a cat on my lap. @th3j35t3r @mcfate

I miss working with a dog curled up by my feet 😊
