What has Covid-19 taught you?

This whole thing taught me to re-evaluate what's important.
What's the point of life, filling the pockets of tycoons, or spending time with family.
I will no longer believe in the mission of a company. Any job is actually a glorified McDonalds position. You come in spend your 8 hours and go home to your family.

Very well put. That's one thing I'm still figuring out!
I'm exercising more, eating less, reducing my overhead / expenses. Also, I still hate working, even if it's from home. This is a good trial run for early retirement...
We all could save so much more time by working from home. I've cut my 2 hour commute from to 0 hrs.
We all could but that's not gonna last for ever! However, we could urge companies to at least have WFH on Fridays! It's gonna help us employees (saving our commute time, gas/parking fees, etc for a day) but more often than not, they don't care about that, so we need to tell them how it's gonna profit them. Maybe save on electricity for a day? Food costs?
It has taught me to be grateful about food that I get to eat, no matter how less it seems or how bland it tastes; that we do not require veggies to stay alive, we can very well survive on cereals and pulses and that even 1-2 meals are enough; that I should cut unnecessary costs on subscriptions and plan more on emergency funds.
So what has Covid-19 taught you?
