I'm sorry, if you aren't willing to relocate, you are not a good fit for the company.

I heard this in a job interview and the position was disclosed as remote.

I don't understand why can't the CEO be remote. They can buy all their important staff Apple Vision Pros if they'd like and it'll still be cheaper than this

That’s not how you write off a corporate jet from your taxes.
