Why is it double speak? Yes, I think that healthy 29 y.o. male with wife, kid and mortgage should have the ability to make a decision between going to work or losing his home.
To make this decision for him looks unethical to me. And why exactly poor? It might be solidly middle class person.
EDIT: I'm pushing forties, can sustain myself for 1.5 years without working maintaining the same lifestyle, and I would go to work if I could. I'm damn tired working from home.
- FpUser 7y ago"I'm damn tired working from home." Interesting. I work from home 20 years already and have no desire to sit in a cubicle or waste my time in downtown traffic. I have my own company and products but also develop products for other companies on order and my first ever requirement is that unless there is some super duper meeting I only work at my own premises. Do not feel lonely either as I have enough friends with whom I can socialize to my heart's content whenever we feel like.
- nopriorarrests 7y agoOK, it's not just work from home, it's the whole lockdown hysteria. I barely left my home for last 5 weeks. No live music, no bars, no meetings with friends, no long walks. I don't know about covid, but my mental well being and my productivity are clearly taking a hit. I'm especially annoyed by the fact that weekends are not, in fact, weekends. It is two days of solitary confinement without work.
- lazyasciiart 7y agoWhy no long walks? I haven't heard of that being prevented anywhere in the US.
