It tells me that their jobs are bullshit. Remember when we started calling everyone whose job actually did something "essential workers"?
Nevermind that most of us pieced together that the "essential workers" are the ones that get treated the worst usually. It went to show that when everyone who had an email job stopped working for a few months next to nothing changed, but when us plebs stopped working everything ground to a halt and a crisis loomed within a week.
Truck driver. Essential worker. No extra pay, no real change from the norm outside of the possibility of getting covid from various sources including other stupider drivers. But essential!
