Stop in for a cup of coffee

I've been staying at home.

It's good to be a remote employee right now
I’m hybrid, i usually work 2-3 days a week from home. Actually more productive than in the office.

but I only work 7 miles from home now so it’s not terrible. It’s the 40 mile round trip to daycare in the opposite direction that sucks. Wife drops off cause she works 3 miles from daycare but she doesn’t clock out until after pickup time so I have to pick up.
Wonder if the federal pay scales have gone up alot recently for a COLA inrease?
last I saw, 3.5 percent
