I could trade my WFH for a room with a view and a door. :) fuck openspace and flexdesks!

Honestly yeah, having my own door really helps me survive my new job even though it can't be WFH.

Yes, people didn't get my comment. We don't have all the choice and luxury to work for a great company or good project. In old Europe, a 1 WFH was an ultimate privilege before COVID. Nowadays, It should be choice, I don't mind coming 2 days a week but it to be a "mandatory minimal" 2 days is a bit ridiculous. Still, If I have my own or max 4 seats offices, I'll be okay with it.
