Fears over the state of the labor market hurt consumer confidence in February, according to the Conference Board Consumer Confidence Index.
I think this is a combination of inflation and employers wanting people to return to the office.
I am excited for people to return to the office as it means I can earn a lot more money.
I'm never going back to the office. Working from home is convenient and doesn't waste my time commuting, so I get more work done. All my startups have been remote as well; unless there's something about your work that requires physical presence, office space is a waste of money.
The only people who want to argue with that are those who own commercial real estate. Maybe they should pick better investments instead of expecting us to bail them out 🤷

Well, that isn't true at all. I know many people who want to return who don't own commercial real estate.
I work in sales and people in offices means more sales for me. Over the past six months, I have seen a large push for people to return and fewer jobs available for those who don't want to return.
Strange, you claimed to be a doctor in another thread. Whatever, I didn't say nobody wants to go back to the office, I said it's unnecessary and a waste of money if your work doesn't require physical presence.
Edit: actually, not whatever. I figured you for a liar and a shill months back since you spout nothing but GQP sound bites and don't actually engage with what people say; you just went and proved it to my satisfaction. Enjoy your shiny new block 🤡
Obviously, having blocked him, it's hard to go check myself (also I'm at work - gotta earn that cheddar, we can't all be doctor cyber software salesmen) but it was probably in this thread somewhere: https://lemmy.world/comment/6829461
I think that was the one where I first tried to engage with them, anyway.
