For a lot of people, one of the things is having a change of scenery. I doubt I'd go in if I felt I had to wear headphones to work--I'm mostly fine with working in ambient social noise--but if I had a comfortable office a modest and pleasant walk away, I'd probably go in one or two days a week for variety.

Not the GP but yes.

Not everyone lives in a luxury house.

Nobody talked about luxury. The point of your home is a space for you designed by you. That's the definition of comfortable.

Otherwise it's just a living space with a bed.

In that case I would urge one to get themselves a home rather than an office job with great perks. That's a better investment in my book. No, I don't mean buying, even a shared rented flat could be your home.

Here on the European continent having enough space for a dedicated office is literally luxurious.

I have a office room in a decently affordable rented flat in London of all places. Let's not keep moving those goalposts.

Genuinely glad for you! In Moscow I don't know anyone who has a dedicated office room, even in a rented flat. (And don't even get me started at buying.)

It's not luxury if there's 7 other people (talking, making noises etc.) in the same room with you. It's basically a hostel room.

Allow me to introduce you to the concepts of 'roommates' and 'children'.

(Some of my colleagues returned to the office as soon as it was allowed, just to spend some time away from their families.)

My sofa is more comfortable than my desk, but that doesn't mean I work there.
