It’s great that office workers get this benefit, but it hurts to see as a person who has to be onsite for their industry. Or just any increase in the benefits of my job.
this should also lead to better benefits and pay for on-site workers. many people will start looking for office jobs which increases demand for on-site.
I literally said it’s great to see them get a benefit.
That doesn’t mean it doesn’t sting when you see other industries seeing improvements, while your own is constantly treated like shit. And I work in early childhood education, if we all just left that would fuck over the children and risk their lives.

I’d love zero commute and the comfort of home.
At least the commute will be less crowded for those who have to make it.

I see no issue with people that are forced to RTO being paid a travel allowance of some sort, it’s time taken from them for job related activities.
Normalize paying for the commute. I think that would be a positive thing.
My industry is completely understaffed, it hasn’t led to better wages.
Unionize and fight.
Should office workers get worse conditions because of your career choice? If work from home is so important to you, why not get an office job?

No.

Just like any other strike ends up hurting someone, gotta break eggs to make an omelette.
People who do your job go on strike every few years around here and the parents have to take the slack, it’s not your problem.
Would you be thinking of the children if you were asked to do your job for free? Hell no.
To reinforce this, if my kids school system went on strike I would be behind it 100%.
It would fucking suck for us, but educators deserve better and I want them to get it.
