Those of you fortunate enough to work from home please just realize how truly lucky you are

I'm happy for you. If you aren't overall happy in that situation right now take a very hard look at your life--- start walking outside, get pets, get a fulfilling hobby, Improve your relationship or sever, because you live in an incredibly lucky situation....

Yes, good advice. I am extremely lucky. And strive to remember this daily.

We should all, however, count our blessings. We're all well off.

it took me a long drat time to score one of the gravy train gigs (grader/operator) but once i was there i camped out

How long did you work at that same place? How many promotions the whole time?

 During my "hungry" days, I'd actively try and make my job obsolete. By making other processes more efficient, of course.

real question for the WFH peeps.

Have any of you felt the heat from tech layoffs yet? I'm curious about if AI blah blah blah is really affecting the knowledge workers yet.

Also, is knowledge worker the actual title some people go by? Seen it popping up in articles lately.

I have not.

If I have seen one trend in tech, it's get on board with CUI classifications. I've been dealing with this topic multiple times in the past few years and it seems to be exploding.
