I haven't seen any downsides to having these smaller meetings via zoom though. Sure if someone has kids running around that would be less than ideal, but that's not so much a WFH problem as it is a pandemic problem which will eventually go away.

I'm genuinely curious why it's pure hell for you.

For some maybe, but some people have no problem separating work and personal life. My guess it that the people that have the most trouble with this are the ones that have no hobbies outside of work, so they just end up working more since they have nothing else to do.

I think we need to understand that everyone is in different situations and not force personal preferences on others.

I think allowing people to work however they want should be the way forward.

I personally don't plan on ever going back into an office. For me, WFH is the best thing that has ever happened. No commute, no open office bullshit, more sleep, more focus, more time for personal hobbies, no working in a filthy neighborhood in downtown SF, options for better accommodations (due to no commute), no waiting for people to finally clear a meeting room, no need to stand in line to go to a smelly restroom, etc. etc.
