Anyone who has ever worked in an office knows that this is not a black and white issue. There are times where in person ad-hoc 5 minute conversations solve major issues, while at WFH that conversation would have never happened and it leads to days of work to solve the same issue. On the other hand there have been times where someone get stuck in traffic and gets to the office late and then is in a bullshit meeting where they have to pretend to pay attention instead of doing actual work. That person has wasted half a day for no good reason.

For all intents and purposes, this never happened at the office before the pandemic.
