If you didn’t get a choice to work remote, how come?

    do you feel isolated in being left out of informal interactions, like “shooting the shit”, or because your coworkers aren’t as accessible to collaborate using whatever company chat system?

      When I was working remotely and the rest of the team was in the office, I did feel left out. An organization that’s part WFH and part office-based has to be very careful to avoid that. My current job is 100% WFH so there’s nothing to be left out of, but I do still feel isolated. I don’t miss the commute, and I don’t miss the office, but I do really miss being around people.

      I’d say it’s a more general form of isolation.

        Like @ethan said

        I don’t miss the commute, and I don’t miss the office, but I do really miss being around people.

        We are a social species and I guess we have to respect that. I have trouble finding those folks with similar interests. And if i find them, I might still drop the ball in engaging.
