I know its gonna happen. No doubt there will be YEARS (if vaccine isn't developed) of people milking it at home (with good unemployment pay) and Scamming around ever having to be on site at work (those with the luxury) citing its "not safe to return to work" . While the rest of us who actually have to BE AT WORK get hosed over (Much like we are now with no extra bennies)

Many are milking and scamming it working from home. Obviously not everyone. Point is, those that do have to be at work are getting nothing for it. Just hosed like I said

Well, with genius thread like this;

Seems your education is lacking to even understand such concepts.

Upset because you chose a profession where you can’t work from home?

I worked from home for 2 months and it was harder than working in the office because I have 3 kids.

I suppose getting paid is nothing.

Not sure what this has to do with "dems." The CARES act that enables people to get more on unemployment than when they were working was a bipartisan piece of legislation. Republicans were more than happy to sign it too. So, point that finger every which way.

Being forced to go to an office 5 days a week for 8 hours a day is stupid. Wear and tear on vehicles for commuting, or just time spent commuting in general, being stuck inside all day long, attending pointless meetings that could be done by email or zoom, all that is ridiculous. A huge number of white collar work can be done from home, and should be as far as I'm concerned. Why not have people work from home on staggered schedules if it improves morale, saves time/money, and work still gets done?

Really?

They're at work and NOT getting the $$$ they agreed to work for?

Shocking!

I'd go home.

Perhaps you'd care to explain just how what anyone else is doing affects what people agreed to work for?

Why are you working without pay?

And newsflash, data show that people who are remote are actually spending more time working than they did when they were onsite.

Be careful what you wish for, minimum wage-slave.
