Yes it's harder for most people to form bonds online.

I have worked with people whom only have friends, and social time, through an office setting. I've worked with people who can't wait to get away from their family by going to work. My dad couldn't wait until monday.

I was that guy that socialized, and made friends through work. I'm still that guy kinda? The hour grooming, and the two hour commute is making me think I should reach out to people whom I come in contact locally.

That said, some people don't need the social experience going to an office provides.

They have full lives, and don't need to show up to the charade. If they are good employees, why force them back?

Smart employers will let them work from home.
