      Even as someone who has to go in for my job, I’d love to have all these people off the road, no longer cluttering traffic.

    hell yeah. now that people have experienced the radical paradigm shift of WFH there’s no way for it to feel right anymore having to go in every day and pretend like it means something

    For people who DON’T need to be in office, forced RTO is stupid because it wastes commute time.

    For people who DO need to be in office, forced RTO for others is stupid because it creates more peak hour traffic and lunch rushes, making their own commute/lunch suck more.

    For urban planning, forced RTO is stupid because again it increases road usage and creates unnecessary clumps of high-density areas, causing inconsistent use of urban infrastructure.

    For landlords, forced RTO makes sense because it props up inflated real estate prices.

    Guess what’s happening now?
