[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Fed refusal to go back to work is killing Metro as well; and Metro is already reeling from the pandemic drop in ridership (as well as the crime issues).  Do you like being able to take Metro to the Caps or the Nats?  They can't run an entire system for the benefit of Nats Park and the Verizon Center.  I also just flat out don't believe that people are as efficient working from home 5 days a week.  They just aren't---whether private or public.  And young people cannot learn job skills (soft or hard) sitting on their sofas at home.  We need a reasonable compromise on the work week---maybe Tu-We-Th becomes the new "in office" work week and Fri and Mo are the universal "work from home".  [/quote]

You sound like a dinosaur.  Things have changed and we’re not going back to the old way, get over it.  Even when all the old managers are in the office, we don’t have meetings in conference rooms anymore.  Everyone is sitting in their office or cube alone during meetings where we are all in the same building- how does that make any sense?  Work from home has more advantages than disadvantages, and now we use programs like teams for things like training.  Why would I go back to having someone looking over my shoulder when I can just share my screen over teams and talk to them?  And since I am sharing my screen anyway, why do we even need to be in the same room?[/quote]
