  • oh my boss felt entitled to this recently

    they point blank told me they needed me in the office because ‘they owned the building’ (read: they think they are entitled to use their employees time and resources to prop up the value of their commercial real estate)

    they also spent the time during the pandemic installing a giant paid cafeteria, so they were hoping to capture some of that lunch revenue I mentioned for themselves, or the company they sub-contracted with

    (yes, I did quit, get a new job, and a raise)


  • I work remote and do see that money. Let me explain how:

    • I save money on car maintenance, gas, and business attire.

    • I save money on food by eating at home or eating in my neighborhood instead, which adds value to my neighborhood and creates businesses in my neighborhood instead of my bosses

    • I save roughly 2 hours of getting ready / commute time per day, and time is money.

    What’s wild is that my boss ever felt entitled to all of that for their benefit.
