I think this conversation is more about office workers than site workers. You need to get on site to do the work but office workers don't need to actually go in, they are being told they have to come in and the time needed to adhere to an enforced policy should be included in the work day.

I'm not paid well at my current job but it's also close and I can walk/bike.
I'm looking at jobs that pay me a lot more and it's not worth it since I have to buy, license, and maintain a car then on top of that I'm driving into work, which blows.
You again! Do you post more tame content on lemmy.ml and keep the bonkers on lemmygrad? If so, that's appreciated.
But doesn't this guy already have money?
(Also no to ownership. All the offices are leased.)
Lol no I wish!
I swear to god we just had all our leases expire and chose to renew ALL OF THEMMMM.
In fact, for the main office we've just signed a new multi-year lease in a new building. It's smaller tho. Renovations currently in progress.
But no raises. Times are too tough.
Stores do this for every cable (unless it's a box) that's where I originally got the idea. I bought two boxes of small sandwich bags and that's been all I've needed to wrap every spare cable at work and my own cables at home.
Plastic is actually an awesome material, it's just overused. Wrapping sandwiches in these bags seems like the real waste.
Bags are great for cable organization. I like one bag per item with painters tape for labeling. Big cables, like that HDMI, can be velcro'd.
Ugh I really want to out the company I work at. Of all companies we should be going and advocating for remote.
But we aren't. 'Because being with each is SO valuable'.
Why do people post on twitter like this? What's the point?
Some actual low-res examples:
I went to a climate protest in Canada last week and it was way to tame to actually get anything accomplished.
The main part of the protest was walking down a main artery. For protesters, there is incentive to walk slowly and spread out to make the walk longer and disrupt status-quo longer, but the organizers clearly only had permission to march for a specific duration so they were in the back hurrying people forward so we'd stay within our allotted time window. Maybe 30 minutes. Once a year. It was pointless.
Add to that that 90% of the people there were exactly the people you'd expect to be there and it just felt like a waste of time.
