Good stuff!

I'm hoping to continue working remote essentially eternally, and I'm glad to see the shift in this direction generally.

I hope this trend is here to stay, I cannot even imagine of going to an office in a daily basis anymore

I've been working remotely for nearly seven years now. I've been able to enjoy all of the typical "firsts" for my youngest two, saved immense amounts of time with no commute, and have been able to pitch in more regarding domestic tasks.

I understand and empathize with those that value face-to-face conversations in the office, but for those that don't, remote work is an incredible boon.

Turns out to my surprise I like going into the office, but definitely not every day.

Also I've only once had a commute longer than 20 minutes and it was such a burden (even though I carpooled) I gave that up after less than a year.

is this really fully remote work, or companies tagging hybrid (required to come to office at least once a week) as remote?

A lot of jobs are for sure.

We are back to the trend where any job posted for remote gets 10-20x the resumes of a local job.

For sure the balance has shifted a bit, but I don't think it is as dramatic as some say.

You simply get so much of your life back not having to think about clothing or commuting and being able to throw in the laundry at lunch and get 5o work with a much broader selection of people.
