The horror. What's this world coming to.

  Well, yes. Allowing people to work from home has massive societal benefits, and we shouldn’t ditch those just to massage some managers ego.

    > Allowing people to work from home has massive societal benefits Er, citation needed on that one. Having digital nomads can also wreak havoc on small desirable places.

      Citation is absolutely not needed for something as obvious as the idea that hundreds of thousands of people spending an hour less driving every day is better.

      Those are two different things, digital nomad is not work from home. I mean.. they even use opposing words. Nomad means some form transient, home origin or permanent place of residence. There is also the other way to to spin your point, what about all the small towns they've helped https://www.forbes.com/sites/lizfarmer/2021/09/15/the-small-cities-capturing-remote-workers/?sh=503242610f2d https://www.forbes.com/sites/lizfarmer/2021/09/15/the-small-...

        "work from home" is one of those phrases where the agggregate meaning may be entirely different than individual words. It certainly encompasses digital nomadism at this point, based on how it is used among my colleagues.
