WFH has it's advantages. Eating lunch at your desk, and leaving your desk at lunch to go for a walk or go grab groceries, laundry etc.

Being holed up all day everyday is difficult.

But my rant wasn't just aimed at WFH. Just the whole change in society. Dr's doing appointments over the phone or virtual calls. Like I do need to come in physically sometimes that face to face interaction and privacy is important.

I could never imagine Tony Soprano doing a teams call with his therapist.
My intern right now? He's in my office more than I am! He just NEEDS to get out and finds the office therapeutic.

Granted my office has a nice blend of busy and private. And the funny thing is, he is very introverted. He's trying to learn to talk and deal with people from me! ME!

Can you imagine?

"Dude...you cant talk to people the way I talk to people. For some reason people seem to like me...but...you might get punched in the face."

That being said though, he mentions that its so good for his mental health. And I agree. You've got to get out of your house.

This isnt an indictment of WFH. If you WFH and...play sports, hit the gym, hell even go to the Bar! We still need social interaction.
