As a Brit; I'm a capitalist with a sprinkle of socialism.

I'm disappointing none of these tech companies are acknowledging the happiness that comes from camaraderie and togetherness. (Note: I don't have a family though)

I love the company of others; and the unpredictability of what my day has in store when I venture out my front door.

Everybody working from home for me sounds like one step closer towards a blander, lonelier, disengaged, dispassionate, oppressed workforce.

You can still find places to work with other peoples, or spontaneously meet your colleagues in a much nicer (and possibly nearer) place. When the COVID crisis will go, you'll find tons of options to meet people thorough the day and enjoy a great social life. Working from home is a pandemic thing, afterwards you could work from anywhere you want.

Exactly, which is why I work so I can experience camaraderie and togetherness with the people I actually want to: my family and my friends. Working from home allows me to do that more, much more than working in an office.
