I've been ahead of the curve on this for over a decade. I used to just stay home and work, pissing off people I worked with who traveled every day. They would literally scream and yell at me about it and I'd just...... stay home. My work got done so bosses didnt care too much. I was more productive then they were because they sat in a cubicle farm pissing their life away while I didnt have a drive.
I remember talking to one of them and asking why he came in at all when he sat in meetings on Skype for Business all day with the various people around the world. "You could do that at home." I said and it started to click with him. If I did come into the office it was to do what I needed to and then I left, 3-4 hours tops usually. That made them even angrier.
When Covid and work from home became a thing I was already home, all set up. It took them 9 months to settle in and work things out. They had long meetings on topics like "How to effectively work from home" that I skipped because I was already doing it. Now they all get what I was talking about. It took a worldwide pandemic for the sheep to figure it out.
Most of us need to take a stand more often on things that just dont make sense.
