[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the people who are most rabid about how much they loath the idea of RTO are:[b]
1) slackers who know they typically really work 20 hours of a 40 hour week, and 
2) parents of young kids who understandably would rather spent time with their children than commute. But these folks also don't work what they're supposed to because now they can just "pop out" for every kid related errand. [/b]

For most industries, getting staff together is a good thing. And the newest generation of young adult workers really need the in-office time to learn and acclimate. RTO is inevitable. Gen Xers like me love WFH because we're getting older and already paid out in-office dues and know how to be professional. There is no modeling for the newest workers when everyone kid WFH.

We all have our own opinions. Mine is that RTO is the way to go in most cases. I hope most employers will recognize that allowing qualified employees the opportunity to WFH 1-2 days a week would be a good compromise. BTW my office is 10 is 100% remote and staying that way. I typically go into the office anyone because I prefer it. Having the whole place to myself is awesome. [/quote]

Strongly disagree with this. Most people do not want to waste 2 hours a day commuting and getting ready for work. Having the extra 2 hours a day of personal time improved QOL so much. It’s very difficult to give that up. You don’t have to be a slacker or have young kids to have a life and not want to unnecessarily spend it in a car or on a train.

You’re simply biased. You mention parents popping out for kids, but I’m sure you’re absolutely fine with men in the office stepping out for coffees or spending 2 hours a day talking about stuff unrelated to work. Most people working from an office aren’t productive for 8 hours a day.
