Yeah seriously. Remote work is nothing new. It's been picking up steam, the pandemic just accelerated the shit out of it. The people/investors/whatever that bought these buildings for commercial purposes made a gamble and didn't prepare for the future. That's on them, not remote work. If I go buy a gas-guzzling Porsche today and its price depreciates to nothing because a sudden influx of more efficient and performant electric cars are released, that's on me for making a bad investment and not observing the trends. This reminds of when I worked for Hollywood Video Corporate (video rental business) in 2010 and the VP was telling us that brick and mortar video rental would eventually beat back streaming media. Every indicator was suggesting a different path and they chose to ignore it. They're gone now, streaming media is here to stay. Remote work is here to stay.
