A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I think this is the real question.
Did they quit and join a competitor who offered a better WFH option? Or did they get a taste of the good parts of white collar pandemic life
no commute, flexible hours, work from anywhere
and decide that actually, their entire identity is not just their professional life, and maybe they should retire to see the world/spend time with family?
There are definitely some high profile rage quits over return to office, but I think there are a lot more of the "hey this was fun but time to take care of myself" quits.
