The company I work for has already been discussing whether the overhead of an office is necessary once the COVID thing runs its course. They are talking about sharing space with another company had having maybe one or two days in the office for collaborative purposes.

I personally miss the office though. I think I have gained about 15-20 lbs since I started working from home.
