I’m 20min by public transport and still much prefer my 3 days at home than my 2 in the office.
I think the thing people miss about RTO is that management are more likely to be extroverted. They’re the kind of people who thrive on being surrounded by people. I don’t think RTO is as nefarious as people here make out - it’s just extroverts wanting to mold the workplace to for them.
That makes them bad managers, but not necessarily bad people.
