      suppose we must push harder for remote work

      But most remote work pays enough that housing isn’t an issue. Many lower paying jobs require us to be on-site, and we’re the ones that can’t afford housing.

      So I think the option is way more affordable housing, and removing the stigma around that. In my area it’s called Section 8, and of course, those options always seem to be in the more crime-ridden areas. So frustrating.

          Good points! I should have remembered telemarketing, I actually did that for 3 years! But two years in office, covid let us do it from home.
