Forgive my confusion, but why do you specify needing space away from work now when the vast majority of your concerns prior was struggling with textual mediums? I could suggest if you want to be on prem, you can be. But none of that will address that not only do you want to be on prem you have frustration that other people are not. Couldn’t difficulty with communication be resolved via personal occupational therapy or coaching?

But how do you identify if the issue is with you or them?

If its you, sure you could.

But if it's them, how so you convince that they have a problem? Why would it be my problem, when I get on with other folk?

I find that talking in person, allows me to express what I'm wanting to express clearly. Its hard, but easier.

Why can't a compromise be made where you have three days off and then the two you come in? Why does it have to be All X, none Y or vice versa. WFH shouldn't be having weeks off from the office.

It should be a tool not a privilege.

Wel I mean, there are definitely jobs like that. Why not just take those? Let the people who want to be 100% remote just work at the jobs that are 100% remote, instead of working at a 100% remote job and wanting the workplace to change. I’m sympathetic that you mentioned having a disability (if social blindness is what you meant by this) but I’m unsure if making everyone you talk to commute into the office a reasonable accommodation.

I do. Hybird should be the way to go. Four day weeks. But its not easy just to find a job.

Thank you for your sympathy, it is a disability. I wouldn't want to force anyone to come in to the office. Folk have things going on in their life.
