I think a lot of people will move back to where offices are located, but I'm wondering if we'll see an increase in people who fly in for a few days every few weeks for meetings then jet back home to a cheaper part of the country. Relationships are hugely important -- and deep relationships are almost always only built in-person -- but we're overselling how much facetime you get in a full week vs. a very impactful 2-3 day trip with time for lunch/drinks etc.
- htormey 6y agoYeah I could totally see that. It’s a conversation me and my wife have been having a lot lately. I’m thinking about moving out of SF myself. Probably Oregon or Washington but we haven’t made any decisions yet. We want to see how the world looks after the elections in November.
- ghaff 6y agoI'm not sure why you're getting downvotes. That's basically what I do during normal times. I actually live near a big office but I mostly meet with people elsewhere.
