When we look back over the last five years, we continue to believe that the advantages of being together in the office are significant. I've previously explained these benefits in this February 2023 post. I guess this was after we were recorded by quite some margin.

When you're done with this, you're going to want to jump off the cliff. That's the, that's the kind of, so if anything, the last 15 months we've been back at the office, at least three days a week has strengthened our conviction about the benefits.

And I, I feel that like for those people that have been commuting to be on zoom calls with people that are in other far flung offices, this is not going to resonate.
