Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming “Wow! What a Ride!" - Hunter S Thompson - RIP

(my choice).
2+ years ago, we were all "forced" to work from home.
I decided to go back the office, at least for the summer
Main reason is that I needed a break from being at home, I have a small apartment and I don't have an office, so my work area was also my living area.
Cons : It's dirty and dusty, and grey and beige (it needs a lot of love and new colors on the walls) and the watercooler is probably a cesspool of bacteria after 2 years; I have to bring a lunch; there's no good monitor at the office (compared to mine at home)
Pros : I can cycle to and from the office (30 minutes leisurely ride), I will probably eat less and have less distractions; there's also the espresso machine (which I just spent some time clean it up)
anyone else moved back to their office ?

1. We are not set up for it from an IT perspective.
2. Admittedly, we have to be hands-on with our products fairly frequently.
3. Management is 100% against remote workers.

Oh yes. As soon as I could.
I even snuck back into the office during "lockdown" because of the amount of data I work with.

I was sent home 2 years ago last March - my employer (Mayo Clinic) has fully embraced remote working and has no plans to bring us back together on or near campus. My previous office space was in a leased building and my employer has discontinued leasing it. I have no on-site work place where I could return. Those who have direct patient contact, those who support those with direct patient contact, and those who work in research labs are the ones most likely to work onsite.
I love the current commute -- I cross the hall from bedroom to my (now grown and married) daughter's former bedroom - but I miss the community of coworkers -- Team, Zoom, and Skype meetings are not the same.
I'll be retiring in the fall of 2023 so I expect my remaining employeed days to be spent in my home office.
I do get out and walk a few miles every day - and my immediate team (3 of us) try to meet for breakfast at a local pub Friday mornings.

Fortunately I have a great home office, separate from the rest of the apartment. So it has been most productive.
I do understand the need to get out though. I sometimes go 4-5 days without leaving home.
But tomorrow I start going back to work. The mandate is that everyone needs to come back to the office once a month. Not so bad. Back when it was a daily commute, it was more than 3 1/3 hours on the bus (both ways). Once a month that's ok, but every work day got to be a drag....

Back to the office for one day per week only, which is nice considering the ridiculously high gas prices over here in the Netherlands.

I worked from home for three months.
Extended it by a month because they were renovating the office.
I actually worked from home for a few months in 2019 as well, so I knew what it was going to be like.
I can't work from home very well, too distracted by my TV and PlayStation.
Plus I don't want to end up a hermit, bad for business.
When I work from home I see no people, hear no people, don't leave the house...
Moving to an office actually got me a client who turned out to be a very good client indeed
Plus I loved the 20 minutes commute by bike.
I moved to another office which is 50 minutes by bike, I still cycle regularly, but it's a bit too far for comfort

Back at work 2-3 days a week. It's actually quieter in the office than it is at home.
I have an office at home (shared with my wife), so working from home wasn't too bad. I certainly didn't miss the "gourmet" meals at the office canteen.

Been working from home for over 20 years, with only rare visits to clients for meetings. These days I don't do much work anyway, so I tend to work on the laptop in the living room instead of the home office.
My son-in-law is in presales support for a software company, and used to be 100% office based. The office now hasn't been used for over 2 years, all staff work from home. The offices are empty (of staff and fittings) as they'd taken a long lease, but he uses the associated town centre car park sometimes. This week is his first week not working from home - he's visiting a client in Spain for 4 days.

Reposted from the survey:
Technically we still have an office but at the end of last year we downsized from one that could seat 25-60 people to a smaller place with something like 2 or 3 offices and conference room or two for client meetings. I'm not 100% sure since I've never actually been in the new space.
So there's not enough space left for anyone but the few people who can't or really don't want to work from home for some reason.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Dragged back in (kicking and screaming) for two days a week. Two hour commute each way - oh joy.
General consensus amongst my co-workers is the same as me - why?
My job includes analysing metrics on work throughput and they clearly show that more work was completed during home working than during the traditional(?) office based working.
Management disagree with the numbers, which they originally requested (to keep an eye on staff during the lockdown?)...
So, it seems to be a case of "tell me what I want to hear, not what I need to hear".

Management disagree with the numbers? They don't like the data?
I once had a boss who hired me to run testing to prove his theories, and when the data was not to his liking, he asked me to delete the bits he didn't agree with. I told him that that is not the way data works. You'd think someone with a PhD would know that.

How did he obtain the PhD?
Deleted the data that did not fit the thesis?

I would like to. But there's no one there. Aside from me, everybody prefers to stay at home for work. Just once a week I have an appointment with one particular co-worker in the office, which is better than nothing. The coffee in the office is so much better!
