Question: Let's say you live in a non-advertising market city. You found a remote job with great work but the pay is basically half what you made before you got laid off. Would you take it? Or keep looking and freelancing? Freelance life stresses me out.

The week of my wedding, my husband (PL SQL Developer 4 yoe) was laid off. That was a couple of weeks ago.

Ultimately I think we will be ok, but I know he's hurting / stressed / and could use a supportive partner.

Ever since moving to hybrid work, my coworkers are always complaining about how much they hate their jobs, how much of a hassle it is to travel or work from home. How can you be expected to do your job when you're just so far away from everything?

Me : Awesome so no travel required at all?

“Well you need to come to the office 3 times a week and the other two you will be popping into potential customers on site”

Me: So not remote at all…?

“No we’re remote, you get two days traveling not in the office”

Q1: How are your agencies handling returning to the office? Curious about both good and bad approaches. Specifically if any employers/leadership have addressed the employee question of “what’s in it for me?”

Q2: If your company were to give you a one week notice that you’d have to return to office 2x per week on mandatory days would you feel like that’s reasonable or uncalled for?
