Maybe the standard work environment has been wrong and should be changed and WFH is the way to do it.


That's fine - but that's not what I was talking about. I'm specifically saying if you work for Google - you can afford to live closer than a 1 hour commute. (And you can even take the god damn free shuttle where you clock in for the trip even)


You could also afford to set fire to a stack of $100 bills. That does not mean you find it a sensible thing to do.


You could also afford a straw man. Does not mean you find it sensible thing to say.


Or you're just spoiled.


I'm blessed. But the idea of civilizational progress is to get everyone at that level, as a baseline.
