    Not rewards, incentivises, means the employer has a larger labor pool to pick from, which in capitalism is good.

      But isn’t making commutes longer a bad thing? Especially for the planet? And this is encouraging it.

          I agree remote work is a better alternative. I was just addressing this idea of paying people to commute.

          At which point they say, “if we’re paying you to sit on the train, you can do some work while you’re sitting there.”

            Then hey, I can get some of my 8 hrs done on the train and only have to sit in the office for 6 hours! Sounds like a win-win to me.
