A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

White-collar workers temporarily enjoyed unprecedented power during the pandemic to decide where and how they worked.

Commercial real estate will tank and the economy will too.

The people who are in charge are shit planner’s because they just love money and pay to win at universities.

It doesn’t matter anyway because the environment collapse is cascading.

i love how we're supposed to accept the premise that because big companies starting gambling on office buildings (???? why would you do this???? why is it built like this?? why is this allowed??) everyone's life has to be measurably worse

The piece I love is that commercial real estate near me has not really even decreased since 2019, meaning, commercial real estate greed isn't abiding by supply and demand and they're trying to push their losses back on businesses. Workers need to stick it out until lease contracts loop back around and then we'll see who gets left holding the bag.
