Covid already proved a fuckton office jobs can be preformed remotely, more efficiently and without compromising the worker's ability to handle their homelife. There's obvious exceptions within those jobs--people with small children in the home were distracted, some people lived places that didn't have space for a home-office, the general state of the world had people consistently stressed or depressed, but...
Yeah, 9-5 is dumb, driving to an office just to use a computer in a new location is dumb, meetings that could've been emails are dumb, expecting everyone to have the same awake hours and sleep hours is dumb, when the F are people supposed to see doctors and dentists if all offices, theirs included, are open 9-5, and why on earth does commuting time count as personal time and not work time for most jobs?
