I am still working full-time remote. There are definitely some social aspects of going to the office I miss, but I really don’t miss the commute or the shitty office politics. Overall I feel I am still more productive from home and happier overall.

I’m practically full-time remote, though technically hybrid. But unlike the “x days at home, y days in the office” hybrid, we’re wfh unless we have a reason to be in the office together for collaboration, which actually is helpful. So in reality, I go in a day or two every couple weeks or so. No complaints on my side.
Same scenario for me. We have some weird system to reserve a desk, that a lot of people mostly ignore. I’ve tried to reserve a desk a few times and all but once, some asshat was already sitting there. I didn’t feel like being confrontational so I just went home.
LOL! My org is doing this as well. The couple of times I’ve been in I just plopped myself down in a conference room without booking it. No one was around to complain.
Sounds like a lucky excuse tbh. 👍🏿
Honestly this seems like a best case scenario to everyone except whoever has to pay rent on the office lol
My thoughts exactly!
I don’t even know about that. Since not everyone in the company needs to be in the office at the same time, they can downsize to a smaller office without making it too uncomfortable.
Just to be a pedamt you mean the person paying rent to…the person paying the rent should be happy they can downside and reduce it soon…
It is those receiving rent and those that those recieving rent owe loan payments to that are getting squeky bottomed on their investments.
…or whoever owns the office itself. Office real estate just finished a $500 billion collapse and it’s about to get a whole lot worse:
