Never giving up working from home.
I accepted my current position early 2020, with the understanding that I would move to The Big City eventually. Then covid came. Yeah, that aint happening. As much as I enjoy cities, I prefer to live somewhat in the middle of nowhere where my mortgage is less than 10% of my monthly income
100%. I'm in the office 1x a week. Usually for hardware swaps/pick-ups/rework and I'm not giving any more than that full time. My boss knows this, and even though higher ups want everyone back in the office, to see faces, I'm pretty insulated from it, and have gotten a few others to switch over.
We moved from the Capital District of NY - which i loved - to the Midwest where my wife is from because money goes about three times as far here and I was still making NY money at the time.
Lots I miss from โback east generally, but not the prices.
