Like do business really expect the same level of productivity from pre covid? The US government didn't really do anything about it and we continued on like nothing is going on. Wages have been stagnant for I don't even know how long, prices are still going up. I'm expected to be at work before the crack of dawn and leave at rush hour. I already have back problems that I can't afford to get looked at, transitioning also takes a good chunk of my money. It feels impossible to switch fields because most of my jobs have been manual labor.
