Now it begins. After two plus years of working from home (or somewhere else), more and more folks are heading back to the office for at least a few days a week. And, guess what? They like it!
That’s the story from the Wall Street Journal, anyway. In a feature article that details “the surprise joys of being back in the office,” the Journal reports that people are enjoying returning to the office and finding printers that work and people to talk to while they warm up their lunch in the break room microwave.
That’s nice. Most of us like some variety in our lives and, after a couple of years of two-dimensional interaction on Zoom, 3-D conversations with co-workers are fun and hard to beat. And, at the same time, it would be a real shame if the benefits that people realized while working from home get sucked into the black hole of the way we used to work full-time at the office.
