    That's a good idea for the employees, bad for businesses that rely on for these workers for noon lunches, parking garages, dry cleaners, coffee shops, childcare, transportation, such trains, buses, subways, and planes?!! The savings are great for the employees who would not be using these businesses?!! You don't have to dress, you can work in your pj's, shorts, panties and bra, or butt naked, bath or shower optional?!! No workplace conflicts either?!!

    Work-from-home productivity pickup has tech CEOs predicting many employees will never come back to the office

    That just may be the beginning: At least six prominent tech companies are considering permanently moving a large slice of their workforces to work-from-home status, their chief executives told MarketWatch this week.

    The COVID-19 pandemic forcing those who could work from home to do so has led to a surprising result — improved productivity. U.S. workers were 47% more productive in March and April than in the same two months a year ago through cloud-based business tools, chat applications and email, according to an analysis of 100 million data points from 30,000 Americans by workplace-monitoring company Prodoscore.
