Employers are less motivated to pay workers a living wage.

Cause, meet effect!

Underpaid as it is and got told no raise for at least a year because of the way the company is doing. They're getting a good deal. Good for them the labour market is shit right now. Ask me where my motivation is.

Most people took a paycut even if they got a "raise" so it's not really a surprise.

There's less incentive to work.

it all feels pointless. after 2020 we know they can just pull the rug on everything....my generation and future ones know that there probably isn't a future because we're still polluting even though if we stopped now we'd all be suffering anyway so....full steam ahead i guess

RTO mandates are such a vile vile figment of the mid 2020s. massive quality of life downgrades are being mandated because some rich fucks bet too many fucking parlays on fucking office buildings
