[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The responses here just demonstrate [b]how many Americans are interested in watching other people needlessly suffer if they themselves had to do it at some point. This is why people aren’t having kids anymore. We live in such a sadistic country. It’s pathetic[/b]. Shame on all of you. We have all of this technology that should liberate us to have balance and find peace and we are intent on ensuring all it does is create chaos and porn and internet gambling. You think you’re brave and talented because you drove to an office for 30 years and said yes mam and no sir? No

I always thought we were supposed to want to make society better. Thanks to people before us, we have occupational safety standards, labor protections, kids attend school instead of factories, etc.

I had to take unpaid leave after giving birth, which sucked and was hard on my family and meant returning to work sooner than I would have liked. But I am thrilled at progress being made toward paid parental leave. DH and I also had to pay back student loans, while being stretched by childcare expenses. Again, this sucked. I totally support making it easier for people to afford education and pay off loans.

The people who are all crabs in a bucket are truly a drain on progress.

I also find it funny how many people don’t bat an eye at companies like Tesla not paying taxes or CEOs getting 40 million dollar golden parachutes, but are up in arms over some fed making $120k/year getting to telework with a flex schedule so they can pick their kid up from the bus stop at 4 PM.

Like my God some of you are so unbelievably bitter and petty, I hope progress leaves you behind.[/quote]

It isn’t about being bitter or petty.

It’s the “we have it so bad and nobody else does” attitude. The complaints on this thread are falling flat because they are things many professionals have been enduring all along.

People aren’t gleeful that you’re suffering, too. They are simply trying to inform you that your long commute, pointless mandates you must follow, childcare concerns, etc., are challenges endured by many. And there’s an “it’s okay for you but woe for me” attitude that hits in a bad place.[/quote]

This. Feds respond 1) The person is lying about their RTO and Feds are the only white collar workers who have to RTO 5 days anywhere in the country 2) The person RTOing makes more $$ than them so it’s ok for them to RTO 3) The person RTOing is less educated then them so it’s ok for them to RTO.

This is just an echo chamber. There is no room for anyone else who has RTO’d to commiserate or provide perspective.

What are you talking about?  The tech companies went RTO before the Fed's did.  Many started in Jan.[/quote]

And a big reason for that is because they over hired and were trying to shed employees. It had nothing to do with productivity.[/quote]
