Remote working: Is Big Tech going off work from home?

I just hope it&#x27;s not some type of horrible system, where you&#x27;re expected to go into the office but wear a mask all day.<p>The conspiracy theorist in me believes this is more about stimulating the local economy around tech jobs then actual productivity. Millions of people essentially work in support roles in cafes or bars that cater to office workers. Even auto mechanics will eventually start to lose work as less people need to drive.<p>My dream life would be working from home forever, but with the freedom to go to a coffee shop and not have to wear a mask.
