    Also don’t discount the 40-50 crowd with kids still in high school age. I know someone extremely smart for our org who likes in person. I don’t know if it’s a break from the family, seeing different faces, being used to the way things were in the past, or the fact they’re in a slightly more isolated role now.

    I say all this to say there are probably some who want the office culture but we (our team) tries to ensure we have a social event once a month where we all “clock out” a couple hours early and go hang out. They are also not trying to push everyone to go back to the office and respects most people do enjoy WFH. Just trying to give another perspective on some people who enjoy the office (not me though, fucking love pooping in my own toilet and using lunch to do what I want).

      I’ve met literally 1 guy in my career of 25 years who was both really fucking good and liked being in the office.

      They’re out there…they’re just very rare. But if you listen to the C level propaganda everyone misses in office work…and that’s simply not true.

      Your perspective is correct. I just hate humoring it because a bunch of PMs and middle managers (useless bodies) pile on it.
