Yes, and your implication was that workers that were demanding that Apple allow them to WFH 100% of the time were more productive and highly skilled then the plebs that show up at the office three days a week.
Yep. for sure. I hear a trump rally calling your name.
No it wasn't, I clearly stated that where one desires to work from has no bearing on whether they're a good, productive employee or not. A good employee can work at the office or at home just the same as a bad one. I'll quote it directly so that you can read it one more time and hopefully actually understand what was said.
I imagine if you did a liberal/conservative head count, the majorioty of the right would be against the Apple employees, while the left would be for them working at home.
NOpe. and you don't know me, so there you go. Did your boat sink last fall? Who sounds like the crybaby now?
The smell of the desperate fear I mentioned earlier is strong with this one….
However, reading what one says can be a fantastic indicator of said person and their beliefs. What I'm left wondering is whether Steve Adam's was indeed correct. Of course I'd never expect an honest answer to that question.
So funny. Again, I think the same thing. Nothing desperate here, I work from home. Get a great pay check, live an awesome life. My wife, the same. I pity you who needs to goto work every day...work for a boss who thinks your an ass and you jump at his every whim. Poor thing. Jealous of us who have a great life.
The Fortune 500 won’t disappear anytime soon. Maybe small companies with non-flexible wfh ideas. But top talent can be replaced. Nobody is indispensable.
Not for me, I jumped off the tim train. Enough of the same regurgitated products year in year out.
I like the ALTERNATIVE sections here. They are active and engaging. thanks for asking...any more ways to try to "trip me up" with your cunning intellect? Phew dodged a couple of big ones here... 😅
I can't undertstand why people we don't know (the Apple workers) who want to work at home at a company we don't work for (Apple), are against the workers trying to get a better deal. It just seems spiteful to be angry about this, when most of us have nothing to do with this either way.
It's almost as if they are jealous or something...I don't know....I can't put my finger on it.
It appears to be because if the Apple employees 'win' then the people who are angry about it somehow 'lose,' even though it literally doesn't effect them. I don't get the logic, but it seems there's now a sizable portion of the population who's logic nowadays is specious at best. I'm a chemist and would never be able to do my job from home every day of the week, but I certainly don't hold that against Apple employees who have zero to do with my own job.

Exactly. the us vs. them mentality in the US these past 5 to 6 years is so caustic to society. I work from my home property, I have a few businesses that I run and I am hands on in everything. From rebuilding engines in motorsports equipment to writing, photography and videography. I also have a tour business, a liquidation business and woodworking business. Now, I am not jealous of anyone else's job, I don't care what anyone does for work, or where they do it. It's literally none of mine, or anyone else's concern. I love just calling out the whiners here as they are so petty and juvenile. If I must work from a location, YOU HAVE TOO AS WELL. Jealousy at it's finest folks.
I think it has something to do with the indolent, living in their gated communities and WFH with their fiber internet connections, seem to be grasping for more to make the divide between the haves and the have nots even wider. It's especially grating when they denigrate those that have to work retail because they "don't get a better job" or aren't "highly skilled". But it's always been the elitist snobs that support segregation and oppression.
Yes, because it's the Apple developer making $150k/year that's driving the divide between the haves and have nots. It certainly couldn't be the benevolent and lowly Bezos, Musk, and Zuckerberg's of the world, with their tens of billions of dollars.
An employee living in the Bay Area making $150k probably can't even afford a vacant, burned out house on that salary, let alone in some high-end gated community.

The home landed six cash offers, all over the asking price.

Your idea of what a low six figure income gets you in that part of the country is a fantasy, as is your belief of who's intentionally furthering the gap between the top 1% and everyone else. The ultra-wealthy's plan is obviously working though, turn the lower class and the middle class against one another to distract both while they make off with the goods.
