Good. I've noticed more job opportunities that stress a remote(/hybrid) nature the past couple of months, and I greatly appreciate it. As long as there are options for those who need them (being in the office because the home situation is too distracting vs needing to WFH because someone's coming to fix a pipe), I think it works.

Employees have shown they get the work done (and are working more hours with the lack of a commute + water cooler time which is its own issue). There are reasons that being on-site job necessary of course, but if the only one is the employer is paranoid and wants to hover over their employees, that says more about them.

Granted, all the landlords who have or are building massive office blocks might be in trouble, but frankly they can deal with it.
