Covid has created an alternative life/work style, which doesn't look like resuming anytime soon. Aside from all those who will carry on WFH in this country, we get those being interviewed on the tele who used to be in person in the studio. Now they can't be arsed to get through the front door to earn their appearance fees, and continue to sit in dim light from their homes. Ironic as well the number of times that WFH has been discussed by those whose screens continually freeze !!!!
And so it is with our American friends, Marla can't even be bothered to appear by video let alone get on a flight. Perhaps they just aren't willing to cough up for air fares and hotel costs anymore, just for a few hours on one day once or twice a month.
I know there are diversive views on wfh, but there is a lot of inconvenience experienced by customers because of it. When I've eventually got through to a company by someone wfh, the young lady couldn't answer what I wanted to know - before Covid she would say "hold on and I will ask my Supervisor", not something she could do when working from her home study !!! so I was left frustrated and she felt helpless in her inability to help.
