I know you don't like your manager, but trust me: it's not true that 100% of managers on this planet are idiots running on preconceived notions and FUD.
If work from home was profitable than some company out there would have made bank already.
Work from home doesn't work because humans can't context-switch too well.

If people were rational, there would be references to studies or statistics to rebut, but no I have only tired lazy arguments to try and refute. To address that latest FUD, working from an office is worse in the interruption aspect. At home I can make draconian rules about when I'm interrupted. Not so in an office. WOF doesn't always work, but it can work and very effectively. Way more often than folks are willing to try it. And consider: this argument is from somebody who has worked from home for most of their career. How often have you tried it?
