Microsoft actually poached a lot of good employees when we decided to start pretending that Covid was over because they didn't do RTO. Now, they'll probably lose them.

As soon as the vaccine rolled out so many just started pretending it was completely gone. Or used it as a reason to remove anything done to prevent it. Some states even then outlawed basic things like putting up screens
