Imagine not working from home
As a teacher, I would rather die than ever teach a class over zoom or teams ever again.
As an adult who had to sit with a first grader to make sure they stayed in their zoom classes, I couldn't agree more. I don't hold a grudge against her teacher, we were all doing our best. It was just impossible to keep a first grader focused on her laptop for more than 20 min at best.
You just see what would happen in class. Now imagine having 20 of them.
As a student, I agree.
I wish I could cut grass from home.
In all seriousness, some jobs cannot be done remotely. Schools are a prime example of this. That should mean that those jobs should cover expenses for travel and have some sort of tax for offsetting their carbon footprint.
Working from home is so beautiful to me. I can work from my living place, and don't need to see faces of everyone (most of the time)
Something like 75 percent of all jobs in the US aren't able to be done remotely, according to a study by researchers at UW.
