A lonely tech worker's post about being 'a lot happier' after returning to the office sparked a debate around if that's only for people without kids or a hard commute

is an anonymous job-posting site that verifies workers' employment status by periodically requiring users to log in using their work email address. Insider did not independently verify the employment of the Blind users cited in this story.

While the post seemed to resonate with some of the commenters online, other pointed out the return to office push is less ideal for people with young children or a difficult commute. The initial poster later pointed out in a response on the thread that they were"young and single" and without any concerns about kids.

A Microsoft employee added that returning to in-person work would be most ideal for people who lived in areas with high quality public transportation. Some workers said that while the pandemic and the push to remote work gave them more freedom to work on side hustles, the lack of division between their work environment and their home life also burnt them out.
