What abuse? Do you think people sitting the office are actually doing work at all time? Anyone who pays attention at the office knows people are constantly wasting time socializing and surfing the web. It's all a facade to pretend like more work is being done. If anything COVID uncovered the fact that most modern jobs are unnecessary, or can be completed in very little time and don't require a 40 hour work week.

The focus should be on whether goals and projects are being completed not how much people have their asses in office chairs.
