We all need co-workers. Some get them for free. Others have to pay for them. We’re trending towards paying for them.

As workers from home, we often work in complete isolation. Most of us like it that way. The rest of us are lonely. To get some much needed interaction with other like-minded humans we turn to Slack, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Snapchat, iMessage – pretty much anything that gives us hope, connection, acceptance, and value – the four pillars of a healthy human.

That works, mostly. But not really. For many, the only option is to pay for co-workers.
