Is going to the office a broken way of working?

We've been staying home for well over a year now. Virtually all shopping is delivered and have eaten at a restaraunt once I think. Our work as had one outdoor happy hour that I would have gone to, except for non-pandemic issues. I've been blown away at the recent movie box office ticket sales. Maybe the covid blasé people are going out 50% more often than they did pre-pandemic.

If you’re in the US, I think your attitude is basically just extremely unrepresentative of the general population.

Yes, we're vaccinated in a red state. Just three weeks ago the infection and death rate neared the all time high. We don't feel like hypochondriacs. It's just easy to play it safe for the time being without feeling like we've lost anything substantial.

Are you vaccinated? Everyone who I know got vaccinated and basically started living their lives normally again as much as possible, wearing masks indoors in crowds and maskless outdoors. Several have now gone overseas to Europe

You’d be an extreme outlier in almost any city or town in America for this attitude, at this point in the pandemic
