[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course DC can handle it.  Until the last few years, everyone went to the office 5 days a week.  And, many private companies are not going back to 5 days a week.  I know my law firm is staying at a recommended 3 days in office, although most people are back ~4. It will still be well below pre-pandemic levels.  DC, metro included, will adjust, just like it adjusted down in the early days of the pandemic.  5 days in an office was the reality for many of us for decades of our working life.  It is not impossible for people or for governments to handle this.  [/quote]

Yes, exactly.  It has only been 10 years that there was significant telework.  I remember 2014 and I didn’t know anyone outside of the Patent Office who teleworked.  The population of DC is not that different than it was in 2014 and not everyone is returning 5 days. Anyone over 40 has significant experience working I the pre-telework era.  Trust us olds.  It will be fine.

Our agency has teleworked 3 days a week for at least 10 years (when I joined). But I admire your confidence.[/quote][/quote]
