I definitely wouldnt have had the control back then. I would have been a sodden mess staying up all night and winging it during the day.
Parking is a thing. My place are building the new office with zero parking. Fortunately there is a biggish car park nearby which is cheap as chips, £5 for all day parking which is a quarter of your average price.
I see a lot of people now working in places and for places they never could have before simply because it is remote. I like this new world!
