I'm currently working a remote location far from home, so I get a housing allowance, per diem and a rental car. It's the price they pay for me not being able to go home every night.
But the point is that I don't see a difference between getting paid for my commute here on location and commuting to work from home, which I don't get paid for. But I should. We all should.
I genuinely love my job, but it still commands too much of my life. If it wasn't for the union, things would be really abusive. I'm pulling for the Starbucks and Amazon workers to win the unionization fight. THEY CAN AFFORD IT. If you get the chance to join, do it. They need you more than you need them.
