Next up, the remote work craze. Everybody thinks they are super productive working from home but on a larger scale I imagine it took a huge hit.
Plus it is dystopian as fuck. People need to be around people outside of their immediate family to stay sane and I promise you most of these new remote workers are basically never interacting with people outside their small bubbles.
It’s gonna swing back. Calling it now. A ton of people I’m know made some seriously impulsive moves into houses way out in the middle of nowhere thinking this will last. It will be interesting to see how well their bet paid off in a year.

I've seen it too, and I was really surprised because a house is a 5+ year commitment, and it wasn't (and still isn't) clear WFH will be commonplace that far out.
