So, the landlord profiled this New York Times article has a Twitter account where she calls tenants "parasites", admits she doesn't need the money, and makes jokes about evicting people and making them homeless.Amazing "reporting" here by the paper of record. 🤡 https://t.co/Kii5KAGuXO pic.twitter.com/geeZJGLxqf— Chad Loder (@chadloder) July 9, 2021

article links to a bunch of other stuff but doesn't seem to link to the actual survey? why would retail workers be surveyed in the same group as office workers if the question is "would you like to go back to the office"?
also while i am in favor of accommodations being made for parents, i would hate if my employer did a survey and ordered a return to the office based on the responses of parents who couldn't work with their kids there. or of the person who benefits from her walking commute but didn't know she could take a walk in the morning during the time she would have been commuting.

Just the premise of that article was so absurd that I didn't read it until now out of perverse curiosity. What a bunch of weirdos! Working from home has its challenges, yes, but it's miles better than going into an office.

A lot of people hammering me for having a PhD in economics and knowing nothing about how the economy works: I plead guilty. I got a PhD in economics largely because I loved Freakonomics & wanted to study the data of sports & random things about people.— Seth Stephens-Davidowitz (@SethS_D) May 15, 2022
Thinking about how shocked people are that I didn't know about auto dealerships & beverage distribution as paths to get rich. Proves value of data.

I'll cop to the fact that I didn't know people who owned car dealerships made so much more money than doctors or lawyers, I thought those were all the same general type of rich people

I wouldn't think 'car dealers' in general but the size of businesses - if you're employing hundreds of people in any context, I would assume you're pulling in a lot of income.
