In a world of economical crisis where employment has become a thing of worrisome, with graduates swimming into the labour market every year, and very few getting the luck of landing a 9-5 job or even 8-6 job, there is really no shock that the alternative route graduates found was the remote job path especially when the great and mighty covid exposed the world of business to adopt doing part of their business virtually. Yes, I said part.
I'll say it frankly that in as much as remote jobs has become so saturated with people obviously focusing on it as their saving grace, and most people getting rejected at every email that pops into their inbox, people are still bent on not giving up because of the benefits that are involved. Talk about earning more in foreign or local currency that is sometimes better than those sitting in the office or the flexibility to execute your tasks but ensuring to meet up with deadlines, even workers of 9-5 or 8-6 are hoping to get one as an additional source to their daily onsite work.
But in as much as all these are in place for remote jobs like a sweetness of a romantic relationship, remote jobs also have its own downside of which makes us have people who would still chose or prefer their daily onsite jobs to remote jobs as our desires differs to the other. No matter how great remote job is, there are still uncountable number of people applying for onsite roles unstopped because one thing is certain to be in place of which we need to put in mind when trying to compare the two job types, thinking one will override the other and that is that, not all works in a business can be done virtually. Not even all business requires virtual means of work execution.
No matter how blue or white the collar of the business is, some roles can't be replaced with been done remotely and that's where it leaves the comparison or thought of remote job fully taking over onsite baseless because it is not feasible. Even the technology innovations of robots taking over some roles still needs human monitoring and physical appearance in sorting whatever bugs which still keeps companies running locally from the four walls of their offices.
Can factories producing things we eat work solely with remote workers? Telecommunication companies no matter how they adopt the technology innovations into their systems, they still won't work with only or more remote workers.
So there's always this balance or probably even more of on-site jobs been offered in the employment world than the remote ones because more hands are wanted on desk than it is needed on keyboards so matter how the noise is about remote jobs, on-site is still running more percentage of job seekers in the background.
So even if more people work from home, there is still the availability of the remaining few working from the offices, giving room for others who have their interest in leaving their homes daily for work.
Any which way, it remains a fair game.
