Just arrived to my office and it's the same. Empty.
Half the time I’ve traveled since the pandemic, it’s been largely pointless. Clients will either work from home or takes calls from their offices to avoid walking over to a conference room. Local team members won’t come in when we’re doing office prep sessions.
I still think it helps to get face time with clients, especially when working with a new client, but seems like such a waste of time and money when we travel and end up working as if we’re at home.

Go to a restaurant, bar, coffee shop, or even better - park or a beach, and enjoy the day. That’s what I do 🤷♂️.
