Why Do We Still Commute?

I personally wouldn’t want to work somewhere where I hardly ever saw my coworkers. I’m pseudo-remote as a consultant and wish I got to have more face time with my peers.

Can you tell us why?

Sure! I like people. People make work fun. People that disagree with you (or that you disagree with) make life fun. Most of us spend the majority of our working hours working, and that work makes it easy to spark conversations with others that would otherwise not be had. Not having that for 8+ hours would make me feel incredibly lonely after a while.

(I love working at the cafe and shared work spaces, but that isn’t the same.)
