    It’s dumb that they’re not pushing to get rid of those empty desks and save that money. But I guess the market demands miserable workers or something.

      You are right, but there’s more to the story.

      Every CEO on the planet would love to cut the cost office space. They loved working from home because it put the cost of having somewhere to work onto to someone else. They would then sell, or cancel leases on expensive downtown buildings and save a lot of money. It’s really that simple.

      However, if everyone does this at the same time - which they would - no one would want to buy the office space, meaning the prices would crash.

      If commercial real estate crashes, loans get defaulted on and banks take catastrophic beating.

      So the banks have been having conversations with CEOs to make sure that doesn’t happen.

      And that’s why your ass is being hauled back into an unnecessary 1 hr commute to work in an unnecessary building.
