Technically the rents should go to the employees now devoting parts of their homes (and utilities) to work.

First we started bringing our own laptops, now we're bringing our office.

Sure, there are lots of people who are getting issued a laptop from their employer but there are also a lot of people that don't.

I got an email from my electric utility this summer, pointing out that I was using MASSIVELY more electricity than the same month last year. Like, roughly triple.

When I was at work every day, I had my HVAC on a pretty drastic setback; no sense cooling an empty house. I guess it worked pretty well! Because this year I was home all summer and despite not wearing pants most of the time, it still took a fair bit of power to keep things not-sweaty.

You're right, but I wouldn't hold my breath.
