My wife is a high school teacher. We returned to her classroom one evening after dinner this week so I could help her put together some shelves. After 30 minutes of assembly, I realized I needed to use the bathroom. She gave me her keys and pointed me towards the staff bathrooms. Whilst sitting on the porcelain throne, I realized that I couldn't remember the last time I did a #2 in a public bathroom. I've been WFH since March of 2020 when COVID started, and while I'm sure I've crapped in a public restroom in the past 3+ years, it's so infrequent that I can't remember.
That's not really the point though, more that I've actually been thinking about it all week and reflecting on what working in an office used to be like - crapping next to your coworkers, packing a lunch, trying to look busy when you just aren't feeling it that day, the small talk, and everything else that result in me being absolutely drained by the time I got home. Seriously, sometimes I would just sit on the couch and stare at the wall for 30 minutes when I got home.
It took the greatest global event of the 21st century to shift us to WFH. We can't let companies force us into backsliding into these out-dated work practices when all common sense says otherwise.
