Commercial Real Estate is Dying
finaljedi replied to Uaarkson's topic in The Political Re-Education Camp
There have been times I've thought about getting a plan at one of those coworking spaces, to have someplace to go. But holy fuck are they expensive. Companies aren't going to subsidize that, because you might as well open an office somewhere with what those places charge. -

There was a while where a lot of the companies wanted to feel like a scrappy startup even if they weren't. Open plan, brick walls, ceiling open to the steel roof, could hear a pin drop from across the room thanks to the echo... if there weren't 150 other people in that room. -

People have options now, the hour commute, the monthly cost for parking in the city, and expensive lunch options are not things a lot of people are wanting to go back to. Especially when you can get on LinkedIn and scoop up a remote job. It also didn't help that before COVID the type of people who didn't have to work in these offices were coming up with layouts for these offices. Fuck your noisy open plan tiny workspace shit. -
I think being dumped by the owner that raised them screws them up. I had a rescue shepherd. He was great, but definitely had some problems, if I yelled at him he'd drop and cower and I'd feel bad, I never once hit him. He also loved cats, but hated small dogs with an otherwise uncharacteristic fury. But he was a loyal sweet dog until the very end, as long as he didn't catch a small dog in his sightline.

I work for a New Jersey based company, I'm the only one who doesn't live there. The Teams chat was blowing up yesterday. Also last year I was having a call with my Indian team lecturing them on getting the tickets I assign them resolved more timely when they had to evacuate because of an earthquake, I told them to be safe and we can talk about it tomorrow, they called back 10 minutes later from the street, I felt bad.
