Good tips again, but I get quite a bit of exercise — 40-50 mile a week runner.

> Why commit to going back into the open office?

Because I like working in an open office with other people. The same as the pro-remote work crowd does not enjoy in an office. Neither is right or wrong — they are preferences. My plan is to find a company with employees who share my preferences.

It’s rare to find people who truly prefer the open office layout over having a personal office, or a cubicle, or a shared cube with one’s team. That’s a unique opinion that you’re free to have. For many, the depredations of the open office is a driving reason towards remote, but you uniquely do not have that hang-up. Enjoy!

I’m not sure it’s that rare. It’s just that the remote working evangelists are just so damn vocal about it.

It’s not about remote vs. in office. It’s about open office vs. other types of office plans. The anti-open office threads on HN were something else. Perhaps with RTO, they will have a comeback.
