[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People used to meet their spouses at work. With WFH it will be hard for me to (new-ish grad here).[/quote]

I don't know a single person who has met their spouse at work.[/quote]

really? I met my spouse at work and so did many of my friends in non-medical fields. We worked in different departments so it wasn't that weird when we started dating and it would not have been that bad if we had broken up. That said, I am not sure if that is a reason why everyone should go back to the office. I am back a few days a week and don't mind though. [/quote]Most Studies estimate that at most 20% of all marriages originate at the workplace. So most married adults are not meeting their spouses at work.[/quote]

OP’s concern still stands. My DH was met thru work and not at work. That would still be a result of the in-person thought we weren’t colleagues. 
Plus, you’re not considering all the work friends, trusted colleagues and mentors. I still keep in touch with the attys from my first job years ago. They’ve been integral in helping me start my own practice. I wonder if those ties still remain for this generation if you only know people via Zoom[/quote]
