I mean, in a way, this is this buffer and this is what the give and take is, right?

When you're home, you might be crazy efficient, but it can become a little more transactional.
matched
It becomes like you're just, I don't know, just like checking everything off your to-do list, multitasking, and that can drive people crazy too.
matched
And at the office, you might be a little less productive in the near term, but you're A, getting that social interaction that makes you feel like more of a human, and B, you actually might be paving the way for kind of better relationships and easier and faster work down the line.

On the one hand, open offices are just kind of a nightmare for getting things done.
matched
This was a problem even before the pandemic.
matched
On the other hand, things like hot desking, you know, where you don't have an assigned desk anymore and you can just choose a desk.
matched
I did have experts tell me that could be good for getting stuff done.
matched
You can pick a desk, you know, that is like far away from anyone who knows you and just kind of hunker down and hide there.
matched
And I think as companies see offices more collaboration spaces, some of them will have kind of more outdoor space, cafeteria space.
matched
Like things might be a little more fluid than they were before, especially if people are only coming in a few days a week.
matched
And again, that can be a good opportunity to just kind of like steal away from everyone.
matched
No one can ambush you.
matched
Yeah, it is a big test for companies.
matched
And I think some bosses are going to be kind of blindsided, especially at first, like when they find that people maybe aren't quite as productive in the near term.
matched
And some of this is about just rethinking expectations.
matched
One manager that I talked to, she's an executive and she said to the rest of her executive team, look, expectations are going to have to change.
matched
For example, people are not going to be available every minute.
matched
When they were working from home, you should expect that people are not going to respond instantaneously to that Slack message or email because they're going to be grabbing coffee or chatting with someone.
matched
And that's what we want.
