Stay home. Use Zoom. Wait for your job to be outsourced to Philippines. Convince yourself this is never going to happen b/c of how unique and irreplaceable you are in your professional capacity.

Same. If I have to do one more team building activity over Zoom I’m gonna bash in my own skull.

I hate the idea of going back too, and most of my jobs were remote long before the pandemic. It is true that fully remote jobs are easier to outsource, but being in the same time zone helps. I’m hoping for a hybrid - only come to the office when necessary. And open floor plans should die.

I’m the only one of my immediate contacts/friends/family that isn’t required to be in an office setting at least part of the week, and most people I know have been back for months. I appreciate the companies that are taking this slow, but man I’d be happy to get back to some sort of “normal” and if that means driving to the office a couple times a week, so be it.
