In less click-bait-y headlines: "A record 2.6% of American employees now go to their jobs without ever leaving their houses".
In more absurd headlines: "A record 2.6% of American employees now transfer to their jobs INSTANTANEOUSLY."
- rz2k 10y agoDid the title change? "More Americans now work full-time from home than walk and bike to office jobs" sounds like context, rather than click-bait.
- dao- 10y agoI found the headline a bit ridiculous to say the least. It seems to suggest that working from home is particularly popular, until you realize that the US probably has an exceptionally low rate of people walking or biking to office jobs. So this really just says that working from home is gaining some popularity.
- eloisant 10y agoIt make it sounds like it's a lot, when the reality is that there are very, very few people who walk or bike to work in US.
