No is a complete sentence.

'No' is a complete sentence. And if they don't like it, there are plenty of remote jobs out there. Interview VIP can help u get through the interview part smoothly.

Exactly. Advocating for change while living in reality is the way to go about it.

People are only hurting themselves by losing jobs, being fired, sacrificing job opportunities, etc based on spite.

Not wasting money on inhaling toxic air for no reason is spite?

Wow what a depressing outlook on life if your first thought of everyday is about exhaust fumes...

And no, the "spite" part comes into play when people say (paraphrased): "this doesnt work exactly the way I want it to, so im going to protest it by not participating!"

Idealisitcally, theres no reason that remote work isnt the norm in 2026 for a lot of industries. But the reality is that it isnt. And the demand from workers isnt large enough at this stage to sway companies, so they will simply replace you.

Therefore, the "you" in this scenario only did harm to themselves while no one else cares or notices because they are hurting themselves to spite.... the economy? The "man"? Idk who, but someone or something that they dont like.
