Not every job is about the money. Sometimes a job is worth keeping even if you know that you're leaving money on the table. That doesn't make this practice any less shitty, though.

Yeah it's a little harder when you're not in SanFran or NYC or another hub. Like, I got options, but they're going to involve planes, trains, and moving companies. Might totally be worth doing, but that's a whole lot different than changing my morning commute by 10 minutes.

I don’t live in a tech hub. My company cut pay across the board because of Covid. I interviewed for $BigTech, got a job that’s fully remote - even post Covid.

More roles will hopefully become remote.
