Office space is expensive. Part of WFH does also cost shift running an office onto employee. Especially if you have kids, you’ll likely need a whole other room in your home.
Yeah… Really the average American home is just not set up for 1-2 adults working office jobs. Maybe it should be, but that would result in even bigger (and less affordable) homes.
I have been working remote for same place for 12 years. If needed, I would assume outfit a external shed as an office before going back into the office. When I visit I feel like my skin is crawling – I can’t ever go back.
The office is very nice. I think it is just what I want at this time in my life. I want to be around my family with my dog laying at my feet - not in a corporate environment.
Still wfh for me. I do wonder if that’s because as a medium sized, not a big tech company, office space is tricky.
I imagine this is similar for a lot of places not rolling in dough, office space is expensive.

That is a fair point. I suppose, because you just described me, that yeah I do happen to have my own office, but not everyone can.

You must have had a worse office than most of us. A good office is a nice place to get away from family life with.

I get that. It’s how I felt before I had kids all up in my shit in my home office.
