It Is A Changing World

You know, one of my pet hates at the moment, – amongst so many pet hates? Do you sometimes wonder if it is you? I know, I do – is the various business groups saying that workers should be made to come back into the CBD offices to save the small businesses in the city.

Really?

Office workers have found a better way of living working from home, and the business council of whatever wants to ruin that.

Isn't that just the way it goes, sometimes? Supply and demand. Demands changes, and supply has to change to meet that changed demand. So, businesses will do better in the suburbs, and the CBD won't do so well. 

Things change. It is something of which you can be guaranteed, change.

I, for one, will be very keen to stay working from home, I love it. And you know, the cafe near my house will get increased business, and the muffin shop in Collins Street will close down, that's just what happens.

And government should keep out of it. Especially, the Liberal party, the party that espouses market forces.

Who wants to get up early? Who wants to iron a shirt? (Every day for the rest of your life) Who wants to commute to the office, if they don't have to? Who wants to do battle with peak hour traffic, over crowded public transport, crowds, rude people, pushing and shoving, if there is an alternative?
