Covid was the best thing to happen to the American 9-5er.

True, but for those of us who have been remote “since before it was cool”, like myself, ive been remote for 18 years- C19 was the worst thing that ever could have happened.. before the Virus, i always pretty much had the roads to myself between like 9:30am and 3pm on weekdays.. i had the ability to go to the gym, get a haircut, pick up stuff at Costco, whatever- with very minimal lines and crowds.. i could get a whole week’s worth of errands done in one afternoon… Now, the roads are ALWAYS packed, and forget about going to Costco unless you arrive right at like 10am when the doors open.. I miss those days, and they are never coming back .
