Tech workers shouldn't be working from an onsite location unless they're touching hardware...there shouldn't be a central location they're all at anyways.

I don't know about shouldn't. I think that there should always be the option to work remotely, but I much prefer to work in an office where I can have a separate mental space from home and be able to build meaningful relationships with my coworkers.

Ok but most of this can be solved by going to literally any co-working space.

And as far as getting to know coworkers--wouldn't you rather pick your friends from people you can choose to be around?

Sorry, don't take my spicy opinion personally. I think I've read too many dumbass return-to-office mandates that use stuff like your preference as leverage. Obviously, it's not your fault they do that.

My old company is a great example. They love to say collaboration and shit as a reason to be in office, but you need to ask your CO for permission to speak in office
