[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only people unwilling to go back to work have protected jobs (teachers, state and federal workers).  The poor lowly grocery store worker has zero options.[/quote]

This is mostly true. I have some white collar private sector friends in fields like tech and management consulting who've been told they don't have to go back to their offices this year or maybe ever. And i have fed friends who have never been allowed to WFH due to the classified nature of their work, and state worker friends who got called back so as not to look lazy.

But it's absolutely true that public sector workers have been able to stay home because their jobs are more protected, while tons of essential private sector workers who often have lower pay and far less ability to negotiate safety conditions have had to work in person. And it has NOTHING to do with their jobs being safer than teaching, they are not. Teaching is not the most uniquely dangerous type of work in the world. [/quote]
