Comment on Nothing is requiring employees to be in the office five days a week
Agent641@lemmy.world 2 months agoWFH is not a new concept, nor restricted to office work. Priya Satia’s book Empire of Guns reports that 2/3rds of Birmingham blacksmiths in the 1700s worked from home, and were more productive for it.

Nothing I said contradicts that. But it is the case that there are a wide variety of technologies which make WFH even easier than it may have been before.
If people did it before, they should keep doing it. But now, even more people should be able to WFH.
