The working landscape is changing. The ones calling for in person workers are usually the boomers. The up-and-coming workers, Gen Z and Millennials, couldn't are less about making other people billionaires while slaving away for them. Gen x? Well...I don't know. We didn't have a choice. However, the younger gens have more options and possibilities now. Tech has advanced enough to the point where they can start their own business enterprises and do whatever they want. The Boomers can't adapt. They demand and demand and demand...Well tough ****. **** slaving away to make a handful of people billions. That's their problem.

I don't think that is the point I made. My point is that the Bommer generation can't adapt to the up-and-coming workforce. The boomers will be gone soon. They don't have the pull they once had. The new ones are coming and are already here. The tech has allowed them more options, so they are now able to tell the boomers to go pound sand with their demands. They no longer have to slave away to make a handful of people billionaires, while they get crumbs. Tech is good. It's a new era for everything and I am excited about it.

OK sounds like a winning strategy....just tell JP Morgan to "Go pound sand" because they can't adapt to your desires..

If you can work from home, you're a non-essential employee and needs to be ****-canned.

That is the point. The boomers don't have leverage like they used to. The workers had no choice then. Things are changing. They can do their own **** now, so they can tell JP to pound sand and that is now his problem.

Why is that? If they are getting the job done , then maybe the company is too stupid to figure out a more productive job description.

If the boss wants them back, I'd say they weren't getting the job done.

JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon demands workers return to office in foul-mouthed phone call

AbstractWe study employee productivity before and during the working-from-home period of the COVID-19 pandemic, using personnel and analytics data from over 10,000 skilled professionals at an Indian technology company. Hours worked increased, output declined slightly, and productivity fell 8%–19%. We then analyze determinants of productivity changes. An important source is higher communication costs. Time spent on coordination activities and meetings increased, while uninterrupted work hours shrank considerably. Employees networked with fewer individuals and business units inside and outside the firm and had fewer one-to-one meetings with supervisors. The findings suggest key issues for firms in implementing remote work.

Is not an option for who? It seems like it's not an option for the CEOs and billionaires. Oh well. That's their problem. The point I am making is that whole "go somewhere else if you don't like it" go-to response doesn't apply much anymore. The reason is because since the tech is becoming more advanced, the younger workers are beginning to understand how to use it in their favor in that they can build their own businesses. It's not widespread now, but it has begun. In about ten years, the CEOs and billionaires will need to come up with another go-to statement.

That is a possible trend but it won't support the masses. Three million college graduates each year need to go somewhere.

True, but I think they are moving toward entrepreneurship. They don't want to be strapped with 100k dollars of debt so they can get paid 50k a year. It's not worth it.

The exceptional will find a path, the rest will get herded into a lifetime of wage earners.


I sure hope being an influencer isn't on the list, prepare for poverty.

While there's no exact number on how many influencers go broke each year, the reality is that a significant portion of influencers, particularly those with smaller followings, struggle to make a substantial income, with many earning less than a living wage, meaning they could be considered "broke" based on their earnings alone; studies show that roughly half of influencers make $15,000 or less annually, with only a small percentage making over $100,000. 


 

Employees do what the boss wants or quit. Or you get fired. PERIOD.

I wasn't thinking influencers. AI has opened a lot of doors. If people know how to use it and are ambitious enough to use it right, then they can allow it to guide them. These days, you really don't need a formal education to earn a living wage. One can gain a specific skill set that will allow them to be consultants, as opposed to employees.

Uh, *******, who the **** do you think is cutting the PAYCHECKS of all these belligerent dicks??

Boomers.

So if they want to "work from home" and NO ONE WANTS TO PAY THEM TO DO IT, guess what?? YOUR DEMANDS ARE LIKE YOUR BRAIN- EMPTY AS HELL!!

Great job on missing the point. The point is that the labor landscape is changing. The whole go -to statement "well, if you don't like it, then go somewhere else" doesn't have the potency it once did. Due to the tech advancements, workers are doing their own ****. The CEOs will need to come up with some other go-to statement.

I suppose there are endless possibilities with AI. 

That school loan crap has become pretty risky, I owned my first home before my high school buddies got their degrees.
