Corporate profits have grown (inflation adjusted) from $2.45 trillion to $3.62 trillion over the past 10 years. I think they'll be fine with letting their workers take leave

Well, see, more workers taking mental health leave tells us that workers aren't happy. In fact, they're more unhappy than they can take. So maybe bosses ought to think about why workers are so unhappy, rather than whether this makes the bosses happy.

Nah, they’ll just send another Glint survey to see how much further they can push workers to the edge without them quitting and causing a backfill to be required.

If you’re not going to unionize or quit, take the time, slow your work, act your wage. It’s just a job. Structural demographics prime working age cohort compression labor shortages will get here sooner than one may think.
