People who refuse to come to work, fire them. End of discussion.

Working from home is better for the environment, especially with the price of gas. It’s also better for workers because they don’t have to spend an hour every day commuting and fighting traffic. Most cubicle jobs can be done remotely anyway.

I agree, however "come to work" has now taken on a new meaning. Employees who still perform their jobs (most at higher productivity) without coming into the office are still "coming to work". Remote workers, as a whole, have provided higher productivity at lower cost to the company.
Employees have realized the benefit of remote work and it will be hard for companies to put the toothpaste back in the tube.
Long ago I had one fool boss who said "I would rather see you reading the paper at your desk than imagine you reading the paper at a home office". This represents the thinking of bosses who demand a return to office.

Some of us have roles that don’t require to be “in the office”.

Between spreadsheets, sales proposals, political ground-breakings, ribbon-cuttings, photo-ops with shyster Mayors, and a speech here and there - I hope I don’t have to show up to the office ever again.
