This really seems to miss the mark, at least for me. I can't speak for anyone else, but the reason I hate the office has nothing to do with technology. It's that the office carries prerequisites that rob me of the most valuable non-renewable resource in my life, time.
The office means commuting, and commuting means waking up earlier and sitting a metal box for half an hour twice per weekday. That's 250+ needlessly wasted hours a year. Over a 40 year career, that works out to somewhere around 10,000 hours of wasted time I never get back. That's literally throwing away more than an entire year of my life for no reason other than appeasing the outdated, inefficient 20th century preferences of some executive - one who I am already literally giving close to half of my waking life to, in exchange for not starving to death and being homeless.
$&%# that! I've been 100% WFH since March 2020 and I'm never working another non-100%-remote job ever again.
