No, because I was made to work in the office and then they got COVID in nearly died (that'll show them), so I don't have has rose tinted vision of lockdown with maybe some people have.

It was fun to see how guilty my boss looked. I liked that bit.

Not really sustainable, I don't think. There were shortages of all sorts of food and supplies in the first year alone. Also, during that time the rich got a lot richer.

Yeah, it seems like people forgot about the PPP "loans" which were basically a 5 o'clock free money giveaway for the wealthy.

No. Still had to work retail full time but now with the extra spicy chance I may inadvertently kill my parents in the process! Also everyone got meaner and more selfish. So, thanks for that.

Yet, we are forced to return to the office because PrOdUcTiViTy and pRoFiTs, even though every study that looked into such matters generally found that productivity rose during WFH/COVID.

Yay! Is it the future yet?

Not sure about this. Normally i love staying at home for extended periods of time. Lockdown was a different kind of breed though. After a month i felt seriously depressed but i guess part of it was the pressure from the coming exams i had to write
