No. Having long suffered an unhappy home life, I've relished escaping that misery by heading in to the office. Perhaps egged on by Google, I also noticed a huge improvement in office conditions in high-end companies over the past 20 years or so: superb desks, ergonomic chairs, powerful computers with multiple large screens, well-stocked kitchens cleaned daily, fantastic coffee machines (some companies even providing chefs and baristas), ping pong tables, the list goes on and on. I was also lucky to have some fantastic and entertaining workmates, close friends, almost like family.

pretty much what he said. well, close enough to copy/paste...

I miss my long lunch walks and long 20-30 mile cycling commutes, one way, twice a week for additional fitness... but i stink at ping pong.

Impressive level of fitness.

but i stink at ping pong

I don't. ;-) As an indoor sport, ping pong took a massive Covid hit. I still miss the fun ping pong battles in the office.

I also miss attending in-person Meetup events ... as mentioned here (in the last paragraph), Covid put a crimp on those who avoided cooking, cleaning and shopping simply by wolfing down the free food on offer at a different geek Meetup group every night of the week. :)

Update: When the Covid lockdowns hit my workplace, I noticed that single people, especially those who lived alone, were generally lonely and miserable ... while family folks, especially those with nice homes in leafy suburbs with long commutes to the office, were generally ecstatic.
