They often can't, though. Companies change policies after being hired (mine did), the job market is hard (my son has had his start date pushed back 2x now for a total of over a year), and a lot of time this "choice" of job is not in a context you can deal with. I want to go into the office, but I'd have to move to do it. I want to WFH, but I can't find anyone to hire me for the $ I need to live where I do.
Moving isn't an option for many.
- danaris 3y agoThis is why it's good that we're finally starting to see a resurgence of support for labor power, and a wave of unionization.
- ghaff 3y agoThose are all reasons why things will take time. And in the transition period a fair number of people won't be very happy with their situation (which is often the case anyway).

These 2 things are at odds, which is why I posted. I agree with you, but we're not "at a point"... yet. GP might be, and to some degree I am too, but this is hardly universal nor even as widespread as GP posits.
