Return to office and variants

So most companies shut down their RTO office plans because of Omricron but there is worse variant that will be dominant BA.2 that can get past the vaccines and causes more issues. What is the science? Why are companies making people go into the office then act like nothing is going on if something worse is on the horizon? Omiricron was bad but then a worse variant comes and they say ok go to the office now. Doesn’t make sense.

Frustrated with my work being discarded due to higher up’s whims

I'm a data scientist and I used to be pretty proud of my work, I tried to be statistically rigorous with everything I've created and my coworkers were all happy with the work. Recently though, the upper management of my company changed and consequently everything has to change, the higher ups used to do things a certain way and cannot bother to listen to anyone below them, so all the tools I've created are being discarded for worse versions. All things considered, my job is pretty comfortable, but I cannot help feeling incredibly frustrated with the complete lack of power I have in the situation.

I work for FORD. I would personally like to thank GM for forcing Ford to give all their lower Salaried workers their full bonus. Originally it was only half until it came out that GM is giving all their salary 200% bonus.

Thank GM I will always remember this

Boss angry friend wants to quit

Friend is working uplifting and works as as a part timer at a Japanese bath house cleaning overseas. She wanted to quit because the Japanese owner would often write in group chat and imply my friend did something wrong without directly addressing the issue or confronting my friend, when actually it wasn’t my friend’s fault. So anyway my friend resigns, the Japanese owner tried to ask my friend to stay due to short staff lately. Accused my friend of being rude and asked if my friend ever worked in corporate before (yes my friend works in corporate in Japan). Owner said in corporate you’d go and ask the owner for advice in your career before quitting – I mean we’re talking about career advice on mopping floors here hahaha

Why corporate greed means you’ll never be able to own a home

What are investors doing with their high-profit margins made on the backs of the working man? They are using part of the money to buy up all the available housing to drive up real estate prices making homes even LESS affordable.
