Tech Support Memes

Meanwhile, my company was asking us why do we even want an office, can't we all just work from home? That was years before the pandemic (when Google bought the building we were leasing and the company had to find a new one).

So as soon as the first lockdown happened they immediately closed the office and said everyone is fully remote now. They did give us money to set up a home office, but overall they saved a ton by getting out of an expensive rent (I've heard $1m/yr) and getting rid of all the perks we had in office (free breakfast and lunch, snacks, beer and kombucha on tap, unlimited coffee, gym membership, etc.). I don't imagine them ever deciding to go back to that.
