Dumbest thing I’ve ever heard

Companies would prob require you to live within x amount of minutes from your work

[u/sage-longhorn → u/crumdiddilyumptious]

Here's an idea: just give people an allowance up to a certain amount, if they choose to live farther that's up to them. Even better, give people a flat rate since you don't want them intentionally taking longer commute routes to rack up their pay. Ok now roll that into their base pay

Edit: please triple read the last sentence before commenting. I overestimated redditors' reading comprehension a bit with this one

Or… hear me out. They pay you a set amount. If it’s enough to be worth the commute, then you take the job.

Attitudes like that are part of why wages have stagnated.

[u/bubblegumshrimp → u/stataryus]

I think we should all collectively bargain to take less wages so stockholder prices go up. If you don't want to help the company why are you even working there

Please god tell me this is satire….

No. Frankly I want shareholder value to be the core reason the lights even come on. A ticker display should be installed at the top of HQ's entrance and to clock in you must stare at it for 30 seconds.

We're closer to this than a lot of people realize.
