    I shrug…I like WFH…it’s me vs the machine and that’s that. I hated the forced corporate fun when I was still in that environment. It’s “collaborative”…no…no it’s not.

    Sure…having Little John spin the company party was a neat story…getting paid 50k more and working in quiet peace is a better one.

        I prefer to have fun with my real friends instead of the people I work with.

        I chose those people.

      Totally understand - each to their own! And we agree on forced fun!

      I WFH since COVID, and I definitely wouldn’t go back to the office (we go in once every two months which everyone really enjoys). Personally, I’d swap the 50k for working in an environment that I enjoy, and that for me means working closely and collaboratively with my teammates, who I get along with. Everyone is different though, so what I want from a job is probably other people’s idea of hell.
