Development Officially Delayed due to COVID-19

Generalization is fun!

Anyways, while he clearly exaggerated, it isn't exactly all comfy rainbows and rose smelling farts. Working from that comfy non-work environment, under the same load, with the technical and practical issues it introduces to the work process, it usually means extra hours, or lowered output.

Wouldn't compare the difficulty to some of the front line jobs in this situation (for multiple reasons), but for the sake of fairness, lets not belittle it either.

Sorry but no.
IT remote jobs does not even stand close to what regular keyworkers has to come by with during the lockdown. A lot of people are on sick notes or staying at home, and those forced to do those jobs have to work extra hard due to the staff shortage and higher demand.
If someone is working in IT and have problem to set up their job remotely then just oof.

Ah yes, oof. A shorthand term for unpaid vacation or lay off. Totally not an issue for those involved.

My point was: these are hard times for everyone. We all have our issues. Some, more than others. It's good to have perspective, but no need to belittle a group, just because another has its different kind of worse problems. Even more so, since the guy you responded to made no such claims to begin with.
