> I had a stronger work/life separation. I rarely turned on my work laptop at home.

This is single biggest reason I want to go back to office.

In fact it already has started to feel weird that my home is my work place as well.

Even if my work place remains fully remote I’ll find some other place to work from but never some place as shitty as WeWork. Maybe I will rent a cheaper smaller place nearby if I don’t find a sane coworking space.

Have you tried setting boundaries and being disciplined about it?

I've had to tell people - I won't reply after 5, and no meetings then. People still tried to setup 530, even 730pm meetings all the time (not even during crunch time). Instant decline lol

We don't make enough time for our own lives. Hell, it's hard enough to find time to actually make an enjoy a dinner.

I already do that.

I still don’t want my home also as a work place.
