I would just move temporarily, and after probation period move far away. Surely they can’t fire me because my living situation changed and had to move…

In this hypothetical scenario this gets implemented it would certainly be standard to have a clause to protect employers against exactly that.

Seems kinda shitty that you basically can’t move without employer’s approval.

Also poorer people living farther away would get discriminated.

They very much can, will, and do for much less. Welcome to an “at-will” employer. The only thing that’s illegal is discrimination

What about “living distance discrimination”… /s
