    You dramatically overestimate how much of a fuck they give about you if you seriously think they’re passing up increased profits purely because they feel some villainous need to exert extra control over your life. They do not care about you. They do not care about their workers. They do not care about the consumer.

    The only thing they give a shit about is their profits and how to maximize them.

    We constantly hear them going off about how people with WFH aren’t working as hard, if at all. There are always wealthy fucks throwing shade at the 4 day work week as nothing but worker greed. They never believe the studies, because we’re living in an age where fucks like that will gladly ignore solid research and documented studies because they “feel” like it’s wrong.

    And really, which is actually easier to believe? That some old fart who thinks his workers are all slackers anyway thinks that letting them work unsupervised at home will let them just do the bare minimum amount of work? Or some cabal of C-suite executives forgoing their own pay raise and bonus because they hate the idea that you might be comfortable while you work?
