Birth control and Harvey Ball. ….no clue how you’d affix that to a Reddit icon.

Welcome to Boston. /s

If you weren't born here you and you don't change your views on "girls" here, we will always likely make you feel like an outsider.

I've been designing/selling office furniture for over 25 years and this is the first time in my entire career where I'm actually not sure where we'll be in five years. I mean, folks will always need office furniture, but I assume that need will slow as we realize that folks actually do better work at home.

I sell office furniture to many biopharmas and biotechs in the greater boston area. It seems like many of my clients are working hard to instill a "must be in the office x days" policy with their employees. We seem to be reconfiguring a lot of spaces to allow for hotelling and collaboration areas where folks can work comfortably. The amount of employees in the spaces we cater to have increased since last year exponentially. I'm a bit surprised. Most folks seem to be able to do their jobs from home (some can't and I understand that), so I'm confused as to why these employers want their employees sitting at a desk in their office. Seems like the rent and utility costs would maybe make them rethink that, but it looks like folks are expanding and adding more seats almost daily.
