Business tycoon Anand Mahindra recently shared a meme that perfectly showcased how the future of mankind was going to look like. While, memes are meant to spark chuckles, but this one prompted Mahindra to jump out of his chair. In the graphic meme, a man can be seen sitting in front of a computer screen to resolve all his purposes.
'Not ready to accept'
Dubbed as ‘New Definition of life’, the meme shows a man sitting in front of a computer screen to shop, attend school, for leisure, for playing games, communicate etc. Saying that it was a future he was not ready to accept, Mahindra stated that the meme has now prompted him to monitor and limit the time he spends in a chair, in front of a screen. "I've vowed to monitor & limit the time I spend in a chair in front of a screen every day...," he wrote.
What a nightmare. Not a future I’m ready to accept. When I saw this meme I jumped out of my chair & vowed to monitor & limit the time I spend in a chair in front of a screen every day... pic.twitter.com/HI0biamJ09

Meanwhile, another sharing widespread problem stated "Privileged few has this opportunity. Many of us are frontlines with pay cuts"

But, will corporate companies allow employees to be at ease? Ur own company fired many employees & the audio was viral. MNCs need to be humane. Just bcoz it's WFH, it doesn't mean we are available 24/7. WFH avoids travel time, accidents etc, but thr should be time limit for work.
