    Cool, glad I didn’t listen to my parents, who wanted me to work for Amazon. Yeah, I probably could’ve made a ton more, but I’m making plenty where I’m at.

    I work 2x in office, less if I have a somewhat passable reason to not go in. And I can WFH for a few weeks at a time if I need to travel for whatever reason. It’s nice working for someone that somewhat respects me.

      “Probably could’ve made a ton more” - no chance of that working for Amazon.

      You dodged a lot of pain and loooong hours, 7 days a week.

      For now. Soon it’s going to be: “Well, Amazon is calling people back, maybe we should, too.”

        Well, the day my boss says that is the day I submit my 2 weeks notice, and probably half of our dept. We were hired with the promise of always having 3 days at home most days, and my boss kept to that, even pushing back against company policy that tried to shift to 3 days in office.
