    true. I forget that type of shit exists in office work honestly. It’s less common where I’m at (outside of like, food service ig), despite the fact that as far as I know, most jobs are effectively zero-hours because we have no labor rights here.

    The way the article is phrased/framed I assumed they meant flexible as in work from home or the office as you choose but I wouldn’t put a little dishonest framing past Business Insider

      I think the term for home/office is called hybrid rather than flexible. At least thats what they are calling it where I am.

      The terms are stupid because they don’t reflect what they are.

      Hybrid = wasting 12 hours a day to sit in the disease nexus and listen to asshat scream down the phone

      Flexible work = we own every second of your life without pay and you will beg us for work
