Reading threads about public school on HN and threads about WFH/in-person makes me wonder if there is a relationship between the people that are anti-public school and pro-WFH or if there is a dissonant-relationship between anti-public school and pro-in-person.
I am pro-WFH and pro-public school. But my experience (public school student, public state university, 7 years public school teacher, 6 years in-office programmer, 4 years WFT programmer) is drastically different from many of the posts I read in these threads.
If school is a "prison" full of incapable/ineffectual/communist teachers indoctrinating the "inmates"... what is an office?
The routine of school is prison, but the routine of an office is good? Ineffectual teachers? What about ineffectual managers? Lefty teachers indoctrinating children? Corporations have convinced us that if the minimum wage increases or taxes go up then McDonalds and Apple will just close their doors and decide to go out of business rather than make a teeny bit less profit!
