we all knew things were bad, but feeling the contrast and suddenly living a freer life was absolutely enchanting, even in the face of uncertainty and death.

all of my friends said to each other, over and over, we will never go back to the way we lived before. i'm sure millions of Americans had the same experience.

I feel like this is the correct response. I've seen so many people claiming that "office efficiency" is the most important thing, but the happiness of humans working remotely is such a massive gain. It creates a tradeoff where you're explicitly making employees much more miserable for mild gains in money for employers.

I feel like there’s a happy medium where you have a quarterly session where you meet with coworkers in person to get face time but work remotely the rest of the time. That’s been great for my team, at least.
