> It almost feels like there is a conspiracy brewing to talk down on WFH despite most employees loving it

There are enormous economic forces whose interest lies in workers returning to offices and city-centers.

Thinking that journalists and media-sources are immune to this pressure is illusory - they will be talking to 'experts' who are effectively lobbyists, getting press-releases and generally being contacted in their networks by a lot of people who want to push this agenda, so that expensive offices are filled and city-center businesses can begin to sluice our cash again.

I have saved enormous amounts of money by WFH over the last year, enjoy it more than sitting at an office desk all day, had more family-time, private and hobby time, have eaten more healthily and gotten more exercise and (probably most importantly of all), worked with better focus and more effectively.

But I have no doubt that I'll be required to work at the office again at the end of the summer, because the combination of these immovable economic forces, together with the ingrained cultural prejudices of the management class (that prefer the buzz of the office environment), make it an inevitability.
