Again, an opinion which you are free to have but you cannot speak for others. Lot of people spend time at work and feel productive. When they go home, they are home. No laptop nothing in many cases. I would rather spend an extra hour at work than going home and again working.
- decafninja 5y agoOn the other hand, you can also argue that people who want to WFO to get their dose of social interaction are forcing those who would want to WFH to provide that dose when they would rather not. That seems to be the mismatch in many WFH vs. WFO vs. "do what you want" arguments. The people that want WFO need the majority of their coworkers to also WFO to get whatever benefit they derive from WFO. In a flexible setting where you can choose to WFO or WFH, what happens to the WFO person when the majority of their coworkers choose to WFH? On the other hand, the WFH person could care less if their coworkers are WFO or WFH.

- dv_dt 5y agoI am speaking for myself. Having many others working extra long hours to extend social time creates pressure on others that they need to do the same. I have worked in such an environment before and it’s a big negative. In my experience it also tends to make people plan less thoroughly because hey we’ll be in the office to fix any problems.
