> employers who have a delusion that their workplace is important enough that people need to sacrifice a large portion of their lives just for the opportunity to be there in person.

Being in the office only works with others in the office, so it's a balancing act between this (likely minority) group of both people managers and employees that want RTO, and the group that excels when working in their own curated, controlled environment.

What about the group that thinks they excel when working in their own curated, controlled environment?

Companies can probably get more out of average and below average people easily by forcing them into an office. That’s good enough for some companies to get by. And I say this as an average person who would get more done if I didn’t work remotely.

Upvote for a brave comment.

I was triggered by the word Excel in conjunction with average and below average, but that's just me.

Also saddened by the phrase get by. Move, if you can, and are also saddened by that phrase.
