This interview feels super timely, especially with Amazon CEO announcing that starting in 2025, Corporate staff will return to a five-day work week. There's been a lot of fuss around this.

And the concept of remote work doesn't carry the same weight. Many people just head back to the office as the living spaces here are typically smaller than in the U.S. For those with families or children, the office actually becomes the preferred place to get work done.
