Mate you sound totally unhinged. Sorry you're so triggered that I would enjoy casual conversation with a colleague while we try some new food together. My point was that a lot of people connect over shared experiences and the small stuff.

I'd much prefer if you would directly argue in favor of it being kept an open option.

I'm guessing you couldn't piece together the fact I only go in 2 days a week and explicitly mentioned to do what you want that I'm not arguing everyone returns to 9 to 5 mon to Fri, but maybe you can use this as an exercise in logical reasoning. Me saying there are benefits to going into the office isn't suddenly asking everyone to go back full time.
