#4This might be the worst possible schedule. Mandatory Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays? Terrible.
Neither fish nor fowl. Shit, or get off the pot. But deliberately constructing the schedule to make actually getting to work remote impractical is mendacious at best.

#5When I was around the Bay, I felt like part of the implicit social contract was trading a luxurious office environment for meager, overpriced housing. A long-term WFH arrangement was never sustainable.
In my spacious but reasonable Midwestern house it's been amazing working from home (I'll keep drawing that Bay Area salary as long as possible!)

Bay Area companies are really good stepping stones for anchoring your salary :D This was true for remote work even before the pandemic.

#7Fine, but if any company makes me wear a mask for 8 hours, I am out of there. Work remotely or come to a normal office sure.

Hear me out. Mandatory Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays seems worse, no?

The world has been remote for 15 months, that’s the new anchor. Lots of employers going fully remote who wouldn’t have before, raising the tide for everyone.
No full remote, start looking for your next gig in one of the best job markets in decades. Likely you’ll get a pay bump as well, as the labor market is tight.

Masks should be optional UNLESS you're NOT vaccinated.
