I am so thankful that the executives took a productivity and happiness survey when we went full time remote.

Any time a new manager brings up maybe we should return to the office, our offcial remote manual begins with data: we are far more productive remote working. There is the data, the proof.

The second part about being overall happier reminds us that we didn’t really like being in the office either.

We also have two more metrics: amount of time saved by a company in commute reduction, and the increase in safety.

But the first two are the most important.
