I guess that&#x27;s true. But my inner cynic thinks that (ab)using people&#x27;s herd instincts like that to &quot;facilitate retention&quot; cheapens traditional jobs. I would rather work remotely and have a meaningful social life, than work in an office and have a social life that my employer engineers to make me less likely to leave for a better job.<p>As an introvert, there is only so much social interaction I can take in a day. The office burns through most of it.
