Well, no shit.
Logic, the entire universe, and a million studies: "Working from home makes people happier, healthier, and more productive!"
My dumbass company: "We're going to force you back to the office now, k?"
b-but have you considered the prooductivity
- funny you should mention that (I know you're being sarcastic :)
  Overall, our results suggest that the rise in remote work and TFP growth are positively correlated. From 2019 to 2021, the (weighted) average percentage-point increase in remote workers across industries was 14.9. This suggests that the rise in remote work was associated with an average 1.2 percentage-points increase in industry-level TFP.

  I had this guy that works at this big multinational bank and has his own team complain to me that "my team when WFH just slacks around all day, terf island is collapsing because people like them wont work hard enough" lol speaking of privileged assholes
And happier people are less downtrodden, which is why corporations don't want us working from home.
That's exactly why they're trying to ban it.
My partner basically does 2 hours of actual work and then sits around on her phone or reading a book. She takes 2 hours of naps during her 8 hour shift. She gets paid almost twice what i do. She hates her job 😑
Sometimes in the future they will invent the wheel.
Maybe if you live in a nice place. My apartment is a shit hole and I’d rather be at work most days. I’d probably sleep under my desk George Constanza style if that was possible.
They've the concrete master race for to keep you in your place And a ganger man to kick you to the ground If you ever try to take part of what the bosses make When you're building up and tearing England down
