Or go to a bar and say hi to people who are hanging around. Compliment someone's jacket. Tell someone that their whole aesthetic is cool as fuck. Comment on the weather. Become a part of your local environment and interact with your fellow humans. Join a hiking or hobby group.

Work is actually one of the worst places to get your social enrichment. You're significantly more likely to change jobs than cities and your innie is less likely to feel like your true self. Furthermore there's a baseline mental taxation of being at work that doesn't come with being in a social environment. And nobody's going to come up to you at a social event and tell you to get back to work.

Codie A Sanchez does a lot less work WFH, is what I took from this.

Yeah, when I'm looking for sound mental health advice, I ask a CEO. Doesn't everyone?

This person probably goes to the office and sits in her own private room by herself, because she can't focus with the loud plebs on the big open office floor

This person is purposely being controversial for attention, they don't truly think this, nor is there any evidence productivity has gone down due to remote work.

Going into the office every day is a scam.

"Hard truth I learned as a CEO: Sometimes you have to lie to get what you want, regardless of reality and facts"

Anyone who thinks more work gets done in the office is an idiot, or lying.

I could spend 3 hours a day on a train and do teams meetings in the office, or i could not do 3 hours a day on trains and do teams meetings at home.

I was paying £550 a month in train tickets before covid freed me

I suspect this is mainly because almost all of the CEOs I’ve met are workaholics, and being “at work” is the only way they can self-validate.

And remember, most of them are dark-personality traits, which explains why they cannot understand why you don’t want to go in

If my next job is office only. I'm strictly only using a desktop PC. You can give me a travel laptop. But I'm never taking it home.

"Hi, I'm a shitty person who has an opinion that is self-serving. Let me tell you what I think."

Rage bait for engagement.

Remember how clean the air was when most people were working from home?

But shareholder value is more important.

Good luck to this woman finding good employees. Good employees have a choice.

LPT: when you're this incoherent it's time to reassess your meds.

Ah yes. The lament of the middle managers with nothing to do. They feel threatened because it turns out they weren't needed after all.

“Why don’t people want to hang out with me?”

Time to go back to the office and have still all meeting online with extra background noise. Looking for a quiet corner to be able to hear others properly is great for my mental health.

Also the office life improves my soft skills, like:

• walking with my laptop open im my hand with a headset on to find an empty meeting room
• sharing desks with annoying co-workers from other departments
• enjoying other peoples conversations about their lunch plans from the other side of the open plan office
• fighting for the thermostat setting and opening/closing the windows
• embracing the daily multi-hour commute in rush hours

It really builds character.

Does she think sleepless nights are going to improve mental health?

I am in general a big proponent for going to go to the office, I am an IT guy, and I find I have more focus when in the office, I also don't want to associate my home with work, I need the physical separation and I find it to be easier to coordinate with others in the office.

That being said, this CEO is stupid, loneliness is not cured by being forced to interact with people that I need to be paid to interact with.

I also realize that just because I find the office beneficial, does not mean I get to dictate how other people should feel about it.

Lol, immediately revealing that for her work is only pointless zoom meetings. Real productivity there ms CEO 😑

Sleepless nights for whom? My employer? Ahahah

"Hard truth" she just made up to fit her own narrative without recourse to facts.

I'm in the office right now, and 99% of my meetings are through Teams.

My favorite days to be here are when everyone else is somewhere else.

Being promoted to the C-suite causes brain damage.

This person is a disgrace.

Yes yes.. RTO is all about restoring the productivity and mental health of the worker. Ignore the declining property value of commercial buildings. Tell me again who stands to gain the most by increasing commercial property value? Ah yeah that's right; Billionaires. Interesting, at the bottom of every social problem we seen to find a billionaire.

Investing millions in main st businesses

Obviously a commercial real estate investor, weak gaslighting attempt though.

She knows those who schlepped into offices before Covid realize how much better remote is for everyone, so tries to target kids who are fresh out of school and didn’t necessarily experience that dichotomy.

Honestly to a degree I see the vision but sadly the way most workplaces are organized won't improve your mental health either.
