well i mean, right now i'm in my home office, so myself, but i have to say, i prefer working out of the office. but if you look at certain surveys, so at the last the survey is more than an off of the employee actually would prefer to not fully return to the office on the other side. more board company, especially in the finance industry, for example, they do ask their employees to fully come back, but we are talking about a very tight labor market at this moment. so the big question is, if employers have the power to really ask their workers to fully return, and we will also see it with a tesla, if we might see some of those employees actually rather quit their jobs than fully return to the office. so i guess a lot of employers and also employees will look on what's going to happen next.
