Bravo! And reminder to all that this same sort of “game changer”/changing game is occurring everywhere, in almost every industry, even highly artistic ones. Recognizing how “hard” this is - is kind (and the author is indeed kind!), but irrelevant… Adapting to changing work environments is everyone’s duty - these times are certainly unprecedented and exhausting, which I think fuels this fire of resistance. The need to adapt has never occurred this quickly and consistently, and I feel everyone is simply exhausted, but again solidarity can be found even there. Somewhere this has to break, and I think it will ultimately. Without the ability to move forward on a CLEAR or guaranteed path, I feel the human responses is to quit or resist. Excellent job in stressing the need to see this as an entirely new game, to hit the locker room and regroup.
I love your emphasis how exhausting this never ending adaptation to change feels as well as the need for solidarity.
I think the challenge is that there is no clarity, and there are no guarantees. But there is opportunity, and I very much agree that it's a time to the hit locker room and regroup.

Thank you Bridget for your kind words!
