While slumping over a desk for 9 hours straight improves back health. Prevents 100% of cases of lumbago.
It’s not just that the old money dragons of commercial real estate are losing money, it’s also that middle management nothings need to exert their authority over you in person to feel relevant.
WFH makes every company money on decreased overhead. The war against it is 100% commercial property landlords that collect rent in the billions.
Fuck every single one of those fucking assholes. They are destroying our world to squeeze out just a little more.
Sitting at a desk for 8 hours a day is also bad for you so what’s the point. This bullshit propaganda is really starting to get old. Working from home is better for a lot of people. Corporation need to get over it.
People work from home in their bed? I've been doing this for a decade and a half now. I don't think I've worked from my bed once. Now I have a dedicated office but when I didn't I, you know, made a small surface my desk area and brought in a chair.
That is straight up not what bed rotting is. Bed rotting is when you're so depressed you can't bring yourself to get out of bed at all. Like, it's a mental health condition, not lazyness.
Luckily i built a home office and gym with all the money I saved not paying for 2 hours of commuting, parking and getting lunch 260 days/year. I've never been in better shape mentally or physically!
fknlol - like people WFH are working from their bed. I can't think of a more uncomfortable location for my to do my job from. Except the office five days a week of course...
TIL “bed rotting” is a TikTok term for avoiding the world as a way to deal with burnout until you decide to come out of bed. Doesn’t sound bad on the face of it, but obviously being immobile for long periods isn’t great.
How that transitioned to essentially working from bed and the problems with immobility I don’t know.
I remember back in the fifties how all the conservatives were so happy that all the women were barefoot at home cause they couldn’t have a job, but also simultaneously so upset about all the bed rotting they did. Then the damn liberals invented jobs for women and ruined everything. Now the uppity women are upset about “not having control over their own bodies” and “being forced to give birth to a corpse when the fetus dies” and “dying because of an ectopic pregnancy, something that hasn’t happened in the US since the Industrial Revolution”.
I sit in my Secret Labs gaming chair when working from home. When I work at the office, I sit in their Secret Labs Titan gaming chairs, which don't have a back or neck pillow so are slightly less comfortable and slightly too big.
