This week we go deep on the latest news about work.

We discuss:

• Two thirds of bosses expect a return to the office by 2036
• KPMG CEO survey
• David Foster Wallace - This is Water commencement speech
• Shonda Rhimes “Whenever you see me somewhere succeeding in one area of my life, that almost certainly means I am failing in another area of my life”
• 80% of remote workers claim to have two jobs
• Email sign-offs are changing
• Coffee badging as a protest against being in the office
• Snail girl jobs (and the toxicity of ‘trends’ about women working less)
• The gendered nature of WFH assessment (participants in research were less likely to choose to hire working mothers than childless women)
