The greatest hypocrisy is the demand to RTO while jobs are constantly being offshored to places like India, Canada, Brazil, etc.

Nothing will ever top Amazon requiring RTO for me. Amazon. A company that:

1. Is based on the idea that you don't have to be in person to shop or conduct business.

2. Needs their customers to WFH so their packages don't get stolen during the day

"Amazon, we come into the office so you don't have to!"

Truly. Make sure you’re in the office so you can work closely with the barely responsive finance team in Costa Rica!

I’ve stopped doing fulltime employment altogether. I just won’t do it. I’m sick of being ripped off. Contract only.

I spend most of my days in office running to find booths or empty conference rooms on other floors to take my 10 calls a day with people who aren’t at our office

One of the objectives of RTO is, in fact, to spur resignations and firings from stateside positions that can then be offshored. It's a BOGO.

Ah yes nothing like coming to an office to hop on a teams meeting from my desk to speak to a team 12 hours ahead of me.

I need to let it out but I’m so fucking proud of myself and I just realized how lucky I got and it took me until just now to see it. I started in the military and it only took 2 months for me to get out and fall into a bottomless hole of depression. My transition went from: $13 an hour part time, separation with the wife, new job at $18 an hour for physical labor, hit with disability diagnosis, then $20 an hour new office job, reconnecting with wife, having 2nd kid, nearly divorcing (cont.)

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .

Have an acquaintance who is a single mom; she purchased a used car 3 mos ago. Six wks later her 17yo wrecked it, air bags deployed, and estimates have ranged between $10-$18k in needed repairs while $21k is still owed. Acquaintance was switching insurance policies and flubbed the coverage dates and there were a few days where the vehicle was uninsured. No GAP insurance. I'm not seeing many options for her besides to continue pmts, fixing just enough to drive or voluntary repo. Thoughts?
