[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Young employees (new grads) hate WFH. [/quote]

That’s because they don’t know what the 9-5 in office grind really is. They also have no outside obligations other than happy hour, and have started work in a world with 1/3 the rush hour traffic.

They know not what they wish for, it’s adorbs. [/quote]

I know several, who still somehow want to work from home, even though they have no friends, don’t date, don’t build any interpersonal skills at work, and are somewhat depressed.

It’s really people with kids who are pushing for this or people who have long commutes and believe so completely that it benefits their company because someone they are the absolute most important people at the office and will quit if it changes. Some will, but we all know many are full of crap. A year ago it was all about germs. Now they admit it isn’t about germs but need some other reason. No one cares how far away you live.

WFH is good for YOU. If you can’t argue that it’s best for everyone….because you can’t…..because literally nothing is best for everyone…..then you can’t argue it’s best. Running a company is a different job than what you do. I agree with PPs who have said everyone has preferences. Companies will decide what they want and the employees will accordingly shift. Those arguments you’re all making about money moving to suburban economies and the economy will adjust? Yeah, well so will the work force. Don’t believe someone isn’t behind you wanting what your job. Just go find another one.[/quote]
