I went to the office for the first time. I fucking hated it
I went fully remote about 8 years ago.About 3 years ago I realized I turn into a hermit.  Being home alone all day is bad for me.  The problem is that I live in a small mountain town now and my company is fully remote as well.I rented an office that I share with a really close friend who does the same kind of work.  We set up a sweet little kitchen with our ridiculous coffee stuff.  It's less than 5 mins from my house.  I get to see my friend every day, and we can go for walks and talk about work stuff.  Our dogs hang out while we work.  It's in a commercial space but I honestly think renting a residential apartment would have worked just as well.I think this going to become common.There's real value in being around people who care about the same things, but it doesn't actually matter if you all work for the same company.  There's value in separating home from work, but I still want to share my work life with friends and former coworkers that I really enjoy being around.
