- throwawaysleep 3y agoIf ever dragged back to the office, I pledge to not ever introduce a new idea ever again.
- ano-ther 3y agoThis is a good article making the case for adapted, diverse working environments because that helps productivity and creativity. May I suggest we call it “return to the office push” and not “return to work”. It’s not that we haven’t done anything while working from home.
- disgruntledphd2 3y agoYeah definitely but I followed the title, as per HN guidelines.
- ano-ther 3y agoSorry. Didn’t mean the title of your submission. Was meant as a comment on how the whole debate is framed.

News stories about the issue haven't restarted rent payments. So it doesn't look like a case of "oops we fired all the people who do X" (where X could be 'pay rent' or 'legal compliance').
