It is quite obvious that it is not good to be among the most talented and capable employees here. It is better to be average and work under the radar. I just wonder why so much "fear" of the most talented and aversion to people whom all promising... — read more

Kroger took away sick pay for unvaxxed
With 500,000 employees, they decided to stop paying some benefits to those employees that remain unvaccinated.
If we go back to an office, we’re incentivizing the company to send jobs overseas.
Work from home will prevent jobs being outsourced due to ONE thing. It saves the company money. Bringing us to an office will force the company to send more calls overseas to save a buck. We all know that there are people who would quit if we... — read more

Vz has backed down from mandate as of now
Mandate on hold
Has there ever been a mass exodus like this before?
Every time someone leaves, I think that is it - that for a while no one else will leave, however, very soon after that, someone else resigns. I wonder if there have ever been such difficult periods before when people left en masse and looked for... — read more
