> I expect society will shift to a new normal pretty fast. Some of these elements—e.g., much less business travel, much less handshaking, much more handwashing—I expect to just stick. Some others—e.g., people working from home all of the time—I expect to not stick. Why would people working from home not stick? Of all the enumerated changes, this one seems like the most likely to stick. At least for any worker that has no direct contact with clients needed, going to an office seems to be not that useful and a waste. As a remote worker myself for more than 10 years, I don't really see his point here. Anyone? |

The assumption behind it sticking seems to be that WFH is so obviously better if you just try it you'll be convinced. While I think there's some truth to that (=people objecting to it without actual experience), many companies are going to jump into large-scale WFH badly prepared now, so it could pan out either way. Turning a company remote is a culture shift.
