People who want things to go back to pre-COVID times seem kind of like a cult. If you challenge the ludicrous things, you get frowned at and labeled not a team player.

This is true on both sides… as is standard with any polarisation the extremists are extreme and vocal about pushing their position, while the vast majority don’t comment because it’s obvious that this doesn’t have to be one-size-fits-all.

Some people and jobs benefit from WFH, others benefit from collocating. Lots of people seem to have difficulty understanding that not all jobs are just like their job or just don’t care because they have a preference and want that to prevail for everyone.

I think we’re seeing a selection bias in posters talking about their employers - the ones that are going fully hybrid or remote don’t result in as many posts.

The commute is the biggest issue imo, it's wasteful as all hell here in the states. Makes no sense to drive half an hour or more just to sit in an office that is less comfortable than my home. Not to mention the added cost. Thankfully my job has always been fully remote and will not be changing.
