    It is satire, yes. Reference is to a recent news article saying workers are taking “quiet vacation” instead of asking for PTO.

      I saw a few of them.

      Basically bitching because people are working from AirBnbs in locations other than where they live because taking more than 2 vacation days in a row is frowned upon.

      If you don’t notice that they are not at home then what does it fucking matter? Unless there are tax implications because they are now spending 51% of their time in Mexico, as long as their are getting their work done that’s the important thing.

      Thanks! I missed that article. We’re at a point where some ridiculous shit is no longer obvious satire lol. Like that really seems like satire, but shit is so crazy these days that I can seenthat being a thing with corporations lol.
