The amazing part is lots can, and that would instantly decongest infrastructure so that those who did have to go in would have an easier time about it.
If it was possible for 70% of the country to work from home when it was suddenly needed, and even now 30-40% still do with a booming market economy, the only bubble appears to be the one the media is creating around your ears with the dollars their corporate overlords are paying them.
Seriously this only works for like white collar office work and even then not really. Anyone working with inventory or warehouse and all the jobs that are food service and other onsite management go where?
They don’t want to admit it but it really does not work for more than a specific group of office jobs.
I would be jealous, if sitting at a desk didn’t make me wanna hang myself with an ethernet cable. I’m a process engineer in a steel mill and holy sweet fuck did I wanna die when I was WFH as a desk engineer. Bored out of my mind and feeling like I’ll never progress because I couldn’t even network well with managers/engineers like you can in a mill/in person office.
That’s when I learned at this point in my career, heavily WFH is not for me. I need challenged and I need hands on, 1 of those I very much cannot get at home

What bubble?
During COVID-19 close to 70% of full-time workers are working from home.
The share of all work performed at home rose from 4.7 percent in January 2019 to 61 percent in May 2020
Even if we account for the pandemic “changing” reality, there is still a current report that says near 40% can work remotely.
The majority of U.S. workers overall (61%) do not have jobs that can be done from home.
