I know for many it was a nightmare, but as an introvert it was amazing. I was an "essential worker" so I still had to go into work a few days a week, but the office was most empty and wfh was amazing. Oh and the no traffic thing was chefs kiss.

When companies decided that COVID was costing them too much in profits, and workers couldn't be micro-managed from home or on a rotating office schedule, is when things went to shit.

There are plenty of industries where people are generally less productive WFH than in an office with other people. My coworkers distract me all day, but it's a lot easier to get or give help when we're in the same place. WFH was nice for a couple months, but I'm glad it's mostly over. Once we setup the capabilities to WFH we did keep them, so now we can WFH in an emergency or something.
