Mayor Frey is toast. Gen Z will be upset

I was thinking the same thing. The younger generations love the remote work thing.
I think the guy is partially correct though. It depends how and why remote workers are doing it. You’ve got different kinds. You got the losers (or the ones that metastasize into losers) who sit around watching TV and playing xBox, get almost no human interaction (unless you count discord), and turn into out-of-shape, malcontents with anxiety spectrum disorders. They may be nice people, but they suffer because of their seclusion. But then you have the self-motivators. People who actually become more productive at home, don’t isolate, and use some of the extra time they make for social, competitive/sports, or productive activities.
I pretty much work 7AM to 6PM. I work those extra hours, because I don’t have to spend the 2+ hours every day commuting to the office, so they get more work out of me, by me working from home.
Those same losers find ways to be just as unproductive in an office setting.
