I like to go into the office for the social interaction, but I also like working from home one day a week.
From the article, the con about being interrupted while working in the office applies equally to WFH. Your train of thought can be just as much derailed by a Slack/Teams message as by a colleague wandering by your cubicle.
It's interesting how my daily interactions have evolved since we all went remote. A lot of people at my company seem to have given up on email, and the go-to solution for communication now is a direct message with a request to join a "quick" zoom call.
I've had to get a bit militant about it. Some people still get a bit snippity when I tell them I don't have a moment right now but I'll touch base with them when I reach a stopping point. As if my mere presence on Teams means I ought to be available at any moment to entertain them.
