Aimed at the older, more “I don’t trust any politics” type of person
I work part time retail at a big corporation in Canada, been in the same position for 7+ years with no real interest in moving up until now as I'm struggling with rent and bills.

The promotion entails maintaining a department or “world” and covering tills/cash outs on top of working the warehouse and on the sales floor helping customers.

This store has also lost almost half it's senior staff in the course of 2 weeks back in August due to lack of hours/pay and bad management. The only reason I've applied for this promotion is because I haven't had any luck applying for full-time…

The Fed recently released a study (https://www.frbsf.org/economic-research/publications/economic-letter/2022/september/remote-work-and-housing-demand) claiming to show that working from home has caused more than 60% of the increase in housing prices since the end of 2019. The study is a textbook case of confusing correlation with causation. And this isn't just a theoretical failing – the study itself notes a confounding factor that could point to other causes. The study finds a correlation between WFH differences between areas and differences in housing price increases. It also notes that areas “with more remote work before the pandemic saw larger increases in remote work during the pandemic,” and also notes several systematic differences between areas with more WFH and those with less: “types of jobs,” “cheaper and more housing,” and “pleasant climates.” Each of those factors – and systematic differences that cause them, or that they cause – is a possible cause of the observed differences in housing…
