As for pay, who here is suggesting that you’ll be getting paid bay area pay living in Montana?[/quote]Common theme on here pushed by several people is that Bay area folks are moving to San Diego while keeping their Bay Area salaries and that is somehow the main reason behind SD real estate prices going up.[/quote]
Why did you assume that people will get to keep their bay area pay?[/quote]well, qualcomm is paying a good deal of money to poach apple people from sunnyvale/cupertino to here to work on the snapdragon… i am confident that they were not asked to take a pay cut.[/quote]
My new neighbors seem to be pretty happy. He got a better job at qcom at a better company than he left and she kept her VP title for Bay Area company. They have had company almost every day and it sounds like a non-stop party next door. They keep apologizing for the noise. I keep telling them I love hearing the sound of laughter, music and fun. Even if they took pay cuts their quality of life took a big step up. With all the visitors they keep getting I suspect they will have friends joining them here in no time
Participant[quote=Coronita][quote=an][quote=deadzone]yes Linkedin is a popular and useful service. But at the end of the day it is just a website. How many Engineers to you really need to maintain Linkedin? A negligible number compared to a real company like say Apple or Tesla.[/quote]
OMG, that’s the funniest $hit I’ve heard in a very long while.[/quote]lol… i know.. its just html…[/quote]
When you are still working with punch cards on legacy systems isnt it all html?

And a strawman too. I’ve never commented on them keeping bay area salaries, not once. I said they came here with their jobs working remotely. I have no idea what they get paid. Not my business, not my problem

I’m actually waiting for the Padres to have an off day so Tatis can pick me up in his M8. I heard he usually spends his off days driving Uber.

You were wrong and once again the personal attack. I proved you wrong. But it’s not like you’ve been right about much of anything missing the opportunity of a lifetime all but the most blind could see. We are used to it around here.[/quote]
Proven wrong about what? That pro athlete’s drive Uber? LOL
And what personal attack? You make yourself look like an idiot with these statements, I don’t have to attack you.But hey, if you have a fetish or secret fantasy about driving Uber that’s your business. But for regular people, they are only doing it cause they need the money.[/quote]
I’ll spell it out like I’m talking to a six year old. I said I’ve thought about doing it for fun. You said people do it only for money. I said lots of people do it for fun including professional athletes. I did not say they do it regularly only that lots of people have done it for fun. You made a personal attack and called me an liar. I provided a link showing pro athletes, congressman, college presidents etc have done it among others. Above you attacked me yet again. Wrong again. Wrong pretty much every time.

Dude you are so out of touch. There are professional athletes that do it and they certainly arent hurting for money. They do it for fun.[/quote]Like who specifically? You are full of crap like usual. Oh wait, my Uber driver yesterday did look kind of like Manny Machado, and he was wearing a Swag Chain, didn’t even consider it was actually him![/quote]
Ive read lots of stories over the years. Just did a quick google. Shaq did it once or twice also

I think it would be fun to drive for Uber for a couple hours a month. Chat with people, and do peak times and get people having fun going to parties.
“Yes I am an attorney with a billing rate of $650, but I also like to get out there and meet people sometimes.”
My car is a 2010 so doesn’t qualify for Uber.
The Mazda CX7 and 9 SUVs with leather looks really slick and reasonably priced. That might qualify for UberXL Lux or whatever and let me charge a premium price.
Combine the XL upcharge and only drive during peak hours maybe I can get $100/hr?[/quote]
I think about driving Uber for the fun of it from time to time but never have. With a Tesla I could probably do well. Maybe some day[/quote]
You gotta be really hurting for money if you drive for Uber. Better ways to meet people if that’s your thing.[/quote]

Participant[quote=deadzone][quote=Coronita][quote=deadzone][quote=Coronita][quote=scaredyclassic]If a remote employee in an RV gets in a wreck while on the clock, is the company liable for those damages?[/quote]
No because, technically i dont know about it officially and dont officially recognize it. its like giving someone under the table comp time. i make them fill out the timecard with a PTO request and they take the comp day off. if something happens to them , I approve and process the pto request, and then its on them… if nothing happens, when they get back, i reject and delete the pto request so it doesnt count against their balance. Same deal, i habe them fill out s month worth of PTO at a time, and if nothing happens i reject it at the end of the month. and open a new one for the next month. while the pto request is pending, no one else. sees it except me. And if anyone asks, ill just say hes planning to take an extended pto, but we are working out the details….
This isnt rocket science.[/quote]
Good luck explaining that to the lawyers[/quote]
why would this be any different from you driving a car on a lunch break and get into an at fault accident becaise you were dumb enough to check your email while driving? Is your employer legally liable?
I think you are just pissed that the world is changing , and others are able to take advantage of the new opportunities that for whatever reasons either you arent available to you or for some reason you are hell bent on sticking with whst you are currently doing and cant get over the fact theres better ways to doing things than just to camp out on the same thing unappreciated getting that COLA adjustment each year and then complaining about it not keeping up with rising cost of everything.
the bigger threat to remote workers is employers are no longer suck with locale mediocre talent and paying them higher socal wages to do the work. so that. money goes a lot further in ehat you can get.[/quote]
All of this talk of entitled workers attitudes is so reminiscent of the .com bubble. Late 90s engineers had their pick of jobs, all chasing the next startup. And it didn’t matter how good they were since VC money was flowing like the Niagara Falls. The only difference now is the money is slowing even more thanks to the Fed. So sure the world is changing at least temporarily since there is so much easy money companies don’t have to worry about being productive. But at some point, when the music stops, these lazy remote working, entitled workers are going to be in for a rude awakening.
[/quote]
You know what that rude awakening actually looked like? They took their dot com money and bought a nice home for $400-500K and its now worth almost 5 times that. I know a whole bunch of people like that
The idea that the world is fair and there is some kind of rude awakening written in stone is something people who are afraid to take chances use to justify their failures
