We were planning around this age to move to a condo downtown with as little car dependence as we could manage and covid pretty much killed that dream dead. Sad.

my company's finally joining the pack and making noise about needing to 'balance' our remote work with in-office presence

it's pretty bizarre and transparently just doing the pleasing investors through attrition thing, as we've been distributed and remote-first for like 15 years lol

why does everyone have to be so dumb

The commercial real estate 'industry' holds up the economy and it's based on a bunch of entities that trade pokemon cards back and forth while saying "this card is now worth twice what it was last time we exchanged it," and the banks nod and say "that's right!" and issue loans based on the new card valuation.

If commercial real estate valuations were realistic the economy would fall apart overnight, so they're doing everything they can to keep valuations inflated.

it’s cool when this bullshit thinking spills over into the public sector because clearly private businesses are always more efficient and rational so we should emulate them.
