Yet no one bats an eye when c suite folk serve on multiple boards or low wage workers work multiple retail jobs to make ends meet.

Also very true! I really don't understand why there are "rules" for some (c suite, as you put it) and not for others.
I think there's just a general attitude that people working remotely are somehow gaming the system. And people working remotely at more than one job really come in for extra suspicion and criticism. Some of it is just pure jealousy, and some of it is just the idea that the system is somehow being abused. Most of the time, of course, no one is being disadvantaged, except perhaps the person with no free time who is actually working the jobs!

Agreed! I think they are grinding harder than the ones that are pointing fingers or feeling the need to judge.
Closed mindedness

Yes! There's an old saying: open your mind and your butt will follow.
If someone can work two jobs at the same time then I assume they think why are they pay them to work 40 hours and really only working 20 or something like that
I think it depends who you ask. I’m 45 and technically a gen x-er but I hate going into an office now. If things were like 2019 again maybe but those days of everyone in the office at the same time don’t exist at my company now.
