This feels like me to a tee! I see so many people crapping on 'work social' life as if its some despicable activity that only those with no standards could partake in. The truth is that some of the nicest and best people I have met have been at work, and I thoroughly enjoyed going out and decompressing with them!

Good times.

Amen, same here. Each to their own, I guess it depends based on personality type, the company you're at, maybe the country you're in... but I've made a lot of good friends through work who are still good friends of mine despite not having worked together for many years.

The polarisation of this debate is quite weird to watch. I get why people who prefer remote feel they have to fight for it now that it has become a common thing, but it's weird to deny that other people might have other preferences and there is room for both.
