If everything can be done from the comfort of your own home or anywhere outside the office, then I really don't see the point in being in the office.

Not everyone has the capacity to ground themselves and be productive at home. Some people like going to work because they're more productive outside the house.

Sounds like a company's problem. Get rid of the extra grunts and give the more experienced workers more work and better pay.

I know Im the minority in this opinion, but as long as it isnt a horrible commute I think Id rather go to an office to work.

I dont like the idea of my personal space becoming my work space.

Working from home during the pandemic was cool for like the first two weeks, but after that I kind of missed going in. I understand why most would prefer it though.

After working from home for like 3 months and being given the OPTION to work from home or come back into the office I came back in.

Working from home is great when you have a cold or a doctors appointment or the occasional Friday but I'm no where near as productive at home.

No one that used to work on site is as productive when working from home.

Well, as an IT guy, I'd rather be able to support users in-person than over the phone.
