[quote=Anonymous]Fwiw I got forced back into the office a year ago and I went kicking and screaming. I think I literally cried the night before my first day in the office. But a year later I have to say it's been good for my work and honestly, good for me. I have relationships with people now I barely knew before, and those "pointless coworker chats" actually do serve a purpose sometimes in building trust and generating ideas. I'm up for a promotion now and I'm fairly certain I would never have been considered for it a year ago - it's all because of work I got involved in through sheer proximity / relationship-building with the people involved.

I'm not saying this to sound like a corporate slave or whatever, just telling you my own experience. I still love and, honestly, prefer my WFH days, but over the scale of a year I can see how I've benefitted from the in office time. Now, granted, my commute is pretty easy so that has certainly helped - I really don't envy anyone with a bad commute. But for me, it worked out, despite my original misgivings. Hopefully it works out for OP too. [/quote]
