- Mondays and Fridays are still pretty dead in downtown LA but Tues-Thurs feel like they've started to come back maybe 60-75% of pre-pandemic levels -- nm - hollywood big shot Mar 20, 14:13 1
  - Fridays are definitely the slowest days with the least amount of people on the trains. Our numbers are starting to rise a bit faster these days which - Krusty Mar 20, 15:01
I find I am more productive at home but learn more in the office.... - Walt_Disney Mar 20, 13:58
I work in an industry with metrics like billed hours and such. They can 100% see the change. -- nm - MDH Mar 20, 13:42 6
- my anecdote is that when I was a consultant in the height of the pandemic the company did broadly better across the board with everyone WFH. - mafic Mar 20, 17:15
- WFH is more productive or less? -- nm - Max Mar 20, 13:46 4
  - Statistics show that it depends on the profession and the educational background/salary of the employee. - David Mar 20, 14:08 2
    - Oh, I found the HBR article! -- (link) - David Mar 20, 14:10 1
      - Thanks. Saved to read later -- nm - spamlet Mar 20, 15:29
  - Much less. It's not close. The whole industry is facing the issue. -- nm - MDH Mar 20, 13:56
Ugh. I have teammates in Dallas who have to go in two days a week. - Dark Callisto Mar 20, 13:40 2
- We just got notification that if you live with 25 miles of your office, come in 1 day a week. It’s dumb -- nm - Pippy Mar 20, 13:44 1
  - Super dumb. 25 miles where you are can translate to an hour plus in the car. -- nm - Dark Callisto Mar 20, 13:51
i've been five a week since May 2021. everyone should -- nm - hollywood big shot Mar 20, 13:40
I guess I'm a freak? I prefer to be in the office. - Strongbad Mar 20, 13:40 10
- opposite for like everything. I moved country(ish), I get more done at home, and I have a nice office. -- nm - mafic Mar 20, 17:12
- When things are busy, I'm way more productive at home and it's not close. - Roger More Mar 20, 16:30
- Broadly speaking same here, but I’ve grown to appreciate the logistic flexibility of WFH. -- nm - znufrii, meh and problematic Mar 20, 15:02

  - Yep. I dont know how I even managed to stay productive when being forced working from home for a year. - Jovian Mar 20, 14:13
- Yup. Despise working from home. -- nm - Jovian Mar 20, 13:44
- I don't even have an office near me to go to. My team and my my manager are in other states/countries. - ty97 Mar 20, 13:43
- Ditto to all of the IM. I have a short commute and have been in 4 straight days. Loving it. -- nm - MDH Mar 20, 13:41
choose your option: work life balance; coworker/team interactions; because we dont trust you to work from home; because we want to; #workislife, so - tRuMaN Mar 20, 13:39 1
- It’s this. Always this. We want to cut people/salaries and make sure we are squeezing you for everything you got -- nm - Pippy Mar 20, 13:47
