I've been there since March
Also walked away on from a Zoom call on camera with just my boxers and t-shift on, boss died laughing. Fortunately no one else saw (I think).

I call it sanitary. The sight of pet owners kissing their pets on the mouth, when that mouth is used to clean the pet's ass, and having the pet lick your face all over...just gross. There's a guy at hockey who brings his dog and at the end of the games he kneels down and has the dog lick the sweat off of his face and head, for like a full minute, full on neck and up saliva wash. I mean, it's shockingly disturbing, some of these interactions.

or we're just strengthening our immune systems for the oncoming pandemic?

fwiw, the majority of dogs I know are not face lickers.

it honestly sounds like you may actually be a cat person. they are very hygienic, shed a lot less than dogs, will never lick your face, only really want you for food and occasional attention (depending on the cat). they are also fuckers, which could either entertain or aggravate you. I just try to fuck with our cat enough to ensure there is some balance to our relationship. has worked out fairly well so far. he came with the wife when we met.
 
If I had to pick one, I'd definitely go for a cat. I think they're cuter, and frankly like their style. Cool cats. I'm crazy allergic to some though.

But if I had to get a dog, those huskie puppies are incredible.
 
A cat would kill you, if it could. Luckily they exceedingly lazy, which can come across as zen... but there ain’t much going on upstairs. They’re just tiny predators.

On the other hand, dogs are loyal, trustworthy, trainable and utter morons.

Pick your poison.

heh, that's awesome.

I did my interviews for the current gig in my boxers. my bosses have still never met me personally or even seen me, after 2.5 years. kinda funny.

remote work >
 
I'm going to assume you guys are joking, because that's utter nonsense. They're quite affectionate and sweet. And if they wanted to kill you, or even hurt you, they could easily do that when you're sleeping. Their claws are razor sharp.
 
Well...there are both large wild cats and large wild dogs to help us determine the truth of that

On the one hand, it's estimated that Tigers have eaten about 1 million people over the last five hundred years

In not much more time than that, we purpose bred Grey Wolves into fucking Corgi's. I know which genus I'm more comfortable with.

Any bets the cost savings of overhead doesn’t get transferred to employee pay?

It would be great to see the government find a way to incentivize companies to have employees work from home. Some sort of rebate on salaries. Maybe find a way to reward the employer and employee. It's certainly a benefit to society in a lot of ways.

We also used to swing on tree limbs once upon a time but I’m probably guessing you’re not in the habit of throwing your feces around.
 
I would never own a dog.

Well, maybe a dachshund. I’d call it “Frank” and just laugh at it all day. It would probably develop a complex.

The argument is that your cat would eat you if it had the chance. I showed that yeah, it would. Your rebuttal is that this:

Was apparently taken in the 1800's at some battle. Otherwise, I'm not sure what our species swinging from trees a couple of million years ago has to do with anything.

Tigers eat people. On the regular. Today. A house cat is a 10 pound version of that.

I thought you were trying to say that the housecat descended from the larger cats and so should just be classified as lethal if only they had the size. Which is why I brought up apes.

The notion that housecats and tigers have anything to do with each other today is just as silly. Cats could hurt us if they wanted to, but they don’t even try, and if size is the only thing stopping them, they’d take liberties with babies. The fact that a housecat and a tiger are both from the cat family doesn’t just make the housecat a killer of humans if only it had the size and strength. Suddenly they’d lose their affection for humans and just look at us as food. I mean, do I need to provide links to YouTube cat and baby videos?
 
I worked from home for a few years. When I first started imagined myself traveling all over and be working in cafe's etc. It never really happened though. Was always too busy to lower my efficiency, just wanted to get my shit done for the day.
