To even have a return-to-work policy one has to be a businese that was able to work from home in the first place. But a great many of us work in fields that never really had that option. So data about working from home being better or worse is inherently biased as it comes from only that subset of businesses that can easily make such a move. I propose that the people/jobs who can even consider the debate represent a minority and so any percieved advantages should not be automatically applied to all. No blanket statements.
I say this at 0530 saturday morning as i check my email before driving to my office. (No busses in my town on a saturday morning.)

- sandworm101 3y agoMore like dont make statements such as "all workers should be allowed standing desks" or "nobody should work saturdays" when clearly such things do not apply to enormous blocks of the population. We all need to remember that most people do not work similar jobs to ourselves, that our own experience is rarely ever applicable to the larger workforce.
- Waterluvian 3y agoFair. I think as a non-American I’m just already used to re-qualifying most of what people say on here when they speak for “all” of us.
