Well, it makes most of us happier. There was a minority of people who were very unhappy about remote working and who were eager for everyone to be forced back into the office. Not me, but there were some people.

It was managers, especially middle-managers. And if they are not happy, no one can be happy. Too bad middle-managers are always unhappy.

I must say I am happiest with hybrid. As someone living alone I start to chew the furniture with my work happening in the same space as my leisure. I do love the flexibility, the fact that I can literally just make lunch and eat it rather than dealing with a wet lunchbox sandwich. But I do like to see other people, and an entirely remote lifestyle makes me go a little crazy

Respectable, I'm the opposite, whenever in at the office I feel like I'm clawing at the walls to get out as quickly as possible, the sweat, the noise, the people, it's just not my thing, at home I live alone in a decently sized apartment in a non-major city and it feels so cash compared to rammed trains and buses commuting for hours and hours like the last chopper out of Saigon.
