How expensive does gas have to get before we're not willing to drive to the office anymore? Now feels like a good time to bring back remote work.

I think it's clear that the only thing that will get these old companies to accept remote work is mass deaths.

I have a pretty long commute, but with only going in 3 days a week, a full tank of gas lasts me nearly 3 weeks. Don’t think it’s quite dire enough yet when we aren’t having to go in every day. That said, $100 to fill up the other day was pretty insane.

I was approached on LinkedIn for an early career recruiting role in DFW, TX. I don't have direct experience, but I have the university experience/connections from working in career services. This is the first time I've considered work outside of higher education. I said my salary expectations are minimum $90k and that didn't seem to be an issue. Am I asking too little, too much? How can I know I'm getting the best salary and not just settling at the low end of the range?
