"People really, really want remote work," Pollak said, adding: "It's difficult to put the genie back in the bottle." 'Significant variation' in remote work opportunitiesThat said, most jobs in the U.S. economy can't be done remotely. People really, really want remote work.
☆ Is Gen Z working? It all depends on what you consider a 'job.'
  + stars: | 2022-11-24 | by ( Jacob Zinkula | Madison Hoff | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +7 min
It's taken time for Americans of all ages to return to work, but older Gen Zers are most lagging. It may all have to do with how Gen Z views a job versus a side hustle or gig work. And those answers could partially explain a question economists are puzzled over: Where have the Gen Z workers gone? While he's uncertain where the missing Gen Z workers have gone, he says childcare needs could be part of the answer. If Gen Z has embraced gig work over the corporate life, it could be among the reasons many of them say they're living paycheck to paycheck.

But big retailers might be slower to add temporary help this holiday season than in years past. Despite an eagerness for holiday work, economists from various career sites agree that seasonal hiring doesn't look so hot this year. For instance, Macy's is planning to hire fewer seasonal workers this year compared to last year, as Insider's Avery Hartmans reported. Target has a similar hiring goal as last year; it plans to hire up to 100,000 seasonal workers. Did you apply for a holiday hiring position because of economic reasons?
☆ How the warehouse boom devoured America's workforce

It all happened so fast, we never got a chance to ask the most fundamental question: Is the sudden and dramatic shift to warehouse work a good thing? Has the explosion in warehouse jobs, taken as a whole, left us better off than before? As my colleague Katherine Long outlines in her story about musculoskeletal disorders, warehouse work is dangerous. "Warehouse workers," he says, "are the assembly-line workers of contemporary capitalism." That experience has given him hope that warehouse jobs, like their assembly-line predecessors, could wind up being a source of both personal pride and economic advancement.

Several blue-collar sectors are set to be protected from layoffs, while white-collar workers are at risk. Lee added to Insider that blue-collar workers like truck drivers used to be the "most vulnerable workers" but "office workers have always been considered protected."
