Good point; yeah, that's gotta have an effect, though I suppose it may be 
slight.

What I've noticed, in the last five or ten years, is the increasing range of 
the ~types~ of jobs that are being done remotely.  Twenty years ago I would 
have been surprised to find that companies were willing to have me work on 
their mainframe security from home.  Ten years ago I noticed they were doing it 
with systems programmers, too.  Nowadays I see the occasional req for remote 
managers.  I suppose there are some jobs that simply cannot be done from home, 
forever, but fewer than before.

Came across this lengthy thread from last year. No one seemed to mention the 
effects of a world-wide pandemic. You just can't think of everything...
