  • Love it when the logical excuse is the Sunk Cost Fallacy.

    Though I think there's some truth - companies still pay employees for their WFH rigs / utilities (or they should be, anyway), so it's not exactly free for them to have WFH (just a lot cheaper, if there's a choice).

    The logical excuse I buy into is that commercial real estate is valued on it's income and if business aren't renewing leases because they don't need office space, then commercial real estate values tank. That and thinly veiled layoffs.

  • If you're in need, check out PCsForPeople, they offer subsidized unlimited 4G hotspots. They're well suited for low-bandwidth uses and was my primary home internet for a few years. I used Wifi bridge routers to help connect ethernet / more devices / better range.

    There's also still the Lifeline program, which is a much smaller discount, but can still help.

  • Thanks for the context in this specific case in response to my last paragraph.

    So you're saying it could have been done 6 months ago but is only now being done in the 4th year of Biden's term?

  • This is why I always try "Jenny's Number" for loyalty programs when I can enter an phone number (Local area code +8675309). A Safeway near me used to offer fuel points with grocery purchases up to $1 discount per gallon. I saved a lot of money in gas for a while, then it seemed Safeway got wise and deactivated those numbers.
