Now that the pandemic has proven that its possible to work effectively from home, telecommute, people don't want to go to the office. I read two articles within the last week. The first was that London is experimenting with trying out a 4 day work week. The second was saying that businesses in the US are having trouble getting people to come back into the office.  At first people showed up to see their co-workers but because management is afraid to enforce rules based on when a person has to come to work out of fear of losing employees, people that were interviewed said that even when they were in the office, no one else was, and most were only showing up twice a week and on their own schedule.  I think the 40+ hour work week and commuting as we knew it are dead.  Obviously there are jobs were employees still have to show up like manufacturing but even then a portion of the supply chain shortages can probably be attributed to lack of employees in those jobs too.  I think this is just one more facet of peoples mindset nowadays that they're just as comfortable finding things to do online in their homes rather than actually going out.  Myself included I rarely go out except to run errands and prefer to have a small group of friends at my house so I understand its hard to find people to play face to face RPGs let alone keep a group together.</p></blockquote><p></p>
