I’m pretty surprised that places like Amazon doesn’t pay for home internet. My current employeer it the first in a long time that doesn’t pay my internet bill.

Electricity can be deducted on my taxes, but I need a seperate meter if I want to do that.

My company used to pay for anyone who did on-call work, but they stopped because the internet got to the point of being ubiquitous. People would still have a decent internet connection with or without the job.

I did actually read one of the recent corporate policies and they will pay up to $30/month toward home internet, but only for those who are full time WFH (not related to COVID). I haven't bothered to do it. It's a lot of hassle for $30.
