That's how it usually ends up. I worked at a company where devs had their own private offices, it was heaven. Now I work at home where I have a private office instead of a shared office space with no privacy, loud noises, and and nothing of mine is there because no one owns an office.

I will accept RTO if I can make a little cave with office plants as my office.

Now there's an idea! Someone needs to write "The Goblin Developer Manifesto"!
