    My company just sold about 90% of their buildings. Then consolidated whoever left that likes to work in office (I don’t know why anyone would lol) in one building. They’re still only occupying 8% of that one building.

      I don’t know why anyone would lol

      • Noisy work environment
      • separation of work and home
      • forces you to go outside
      • less distractions in the office vs home
      • want to interact with people not just over zoom

      Plenty of reasons people choose to keep going to the office. No need to hate on them, but also no need to force the rest of us back either. I work full time remote WFH and personally love it.

        These are exactly the reason I prefer to work in office. WFH actually makes the office more pleasant, since there is less people there, which gives me more space and less noise.

        Unfortunately, the long commute time kind of forced me to be at home. U.S. really need to fix their freaking transport system.

        I strongly disagree that there are less distractions in the office.

        I live on the east coast but my company is on the west coast, occasionally I fly out and work there and often the first hour, maybe 90 mins of the day is coffee run, breakfast, water cooler chat, stand up, more chit chat, second coffee run, someone comes over to chat, general melee as people muck around, someone makes a loud joke, hour lunch break, late.coming back. afternoon coffee run… it’s just chaos

        to add to this, time spent on traveling. Also, home is a comfort zone for many workers so it just saves time and increases productivity and you don’t want to be kinds tired after the day ends.

        I did NOT hate on anyone. I apologize if I sounded like it. I just love being home with my kids.
