this is why there needs to be flexibility to WFH. A parent just needs to be home with sick kid, not attending to them 24/7.

I WFH private sector and my teen had wisdom teeth removed and other than the half-day leave I took one morning, I was able to work and be productive the rest of that day and all day the next while he mostly slept from the drugs.

A kid home with pink eye does not need much of anything. I am working on something VERY important to this administration but instead, nothing will happen on my end today.

Eh. Everyone I know with professional jobs in the private sector can do their job at home a day or two a week. If being able to use a computer and email in your home office is the line then no job should be safe.

Those jobs will be replaced. Really it will return to physical labor jobs being the only secure ones, talking more complicated physical labor jobs, not robotic factory assembly line ones that robots can do.

It's so weird that you cling to a narrative that is both false and grim. A happy fantasy I would understand, but trying to push an idea that is bad for everyone and also demonstrably untrue is really odd.
I would love to know what you did for a living before you retired.

That is costing the company a day productivity as you would have taking a vacation day. Now you basically did nothing on that day and saved your time off.

Haha, no it’s over. It didn’t work, no productivity.
Things will go back to how they were before and stay that way.

As a non fed…I feel like they will have to cave on RTO / provide better benefits moving forward to get anyone to work for the govt. I am fairly young (early 30s) and I cannot imagine any of my peers wanting to work there after all this chaos.

You're delusional. If AI can replace nurses, doctors, and lawyers, what makes you think your precious white collar job won't fall victim to AI? Even IT professionals are losing jobs to AI.

AI cannot replace nurses, doctors, and lawyers.

Stop projecting. Just because you’re lazy doesn’t mean everyone else is.

Just stating facts. Unused Vacation Days and Sick Days are a liability on the Balance Sheet.

Umm maybe helpdesk people are being replaced with chatbots but it won’t last long once the frustration from chatbots kicks in. I know you are actively cheering for IT and cybersecurity employees to go set screws in cellphones on a production line but you have zero understanding of these fields and no idea about AI. I have trained an AI model and the field is in its infancy. It’s not taking jobs anytime soon.
