Due to life events, I started looking for a new office for our team last week. I had always considered WeWork to be too hip for my taste. So when a colleague suggested it, I thought they were joking.

But they weren't and it actually wasn't a bad idea. Good location, nice interior, "flexible" plans.

What I found thought is that buying these flexible plans is very clunky. For example, I wanted to try things out at first by getting hot desks for 5 people for a day. Installed their app and realized that I can book for only myself. Their support said that every employee must download the app and purchase their own hot desk.

This is extremely stupid! I am not going to ask the team to pay for their office and then reimburse them. The best solution I have is to make 5 accounts on the phones that I have access to.

So here I am with a service of theirs that I want to get, but they don't care enough to sell it to me.
