[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I am a mom who managed this problem pre covid. It's not that I want more women to be miserable. I agree that flexibility is priceless for working families and I also agree that RTO will have the largest negative impact on women and that is sad.

But I am also annoyed at how clueless and entitled some of these posts are! This is a common problem that until very recently we all dealt with. It's not a unique attack on you. You can figure it out. [/b]

I also agree with the poster who said people used to prioritize commute when buying a home. I recall making a test drive to pick my kids up and drive by our potential new home to see what that would be like before putting in an offer. We didnt put offers in to houses that had more difficult commutes. Even if we loved the space the daily reality of needing to pick up kids and get to from the office was most important.

Sorry it's changing abruptly but not sorry you can't understand that this is life.[/quote]

I agree with you.  WFH was never going to be forever.  Wasn't it only supposed to be until the lockdowns ended?  It was a real nice ride while it lasted and never going to last forever.  [/quote]
Fed telework started years before covid. [/quote]

It became slightly more common after Covid, didn’t it?[/quote]

DP. Yes, it did, because we found out that for many of us, it works. We have better tools now, better connectivity, files have been digitized. No need to be in person and remote work has allowed my team to be much more responsive and flexible, able to respond to requests in the late evening hours. With RTO, that is no more.

People in roles requiring face to face have already been back at the office for 2-3 years now.  You are ignorant if you think remote workers are simply still operating under Covid conditions.[/quote]

It was because there were no childcare workers as they stayed home on the stimulus check or were afraid to contract COVID. That's over get daycare or a nanny you morons and stop the entitled attitude your job will be replaced with ai [/quote]
