It's funny how the narrative changes when a group can actually fight back. Most of the Gen-Xers I know in tech aren't going back to the office, not because they are ultrawealthy but because they are getting old, are virtually irreplaceable, and are prioritizing life over work after having survived the pandemic.

Also, sure Millenials and Gen-Z are "choosing" to go back. They aren't compelled in any way. Right.

Ah that extra loan hurts. Good thing you have your Super Special Boomer Advantage wealth socked away for vacations and retirement!

Yep, all those gold bars! But iirc the loan is part of a program for low income people and we haven't actually had to make a payment on it yet, just the mortgage itself.

It was hell applying though. I had to send receipts for every time I got reimbursed for travel from work and write detailed explanations. Don't ask me how it all worked because tbh I'm still confused lol
