Mayor Jacob Frey quips that choosing remote work over office makes you a 'loser' (Minneapolis, MN, USA) - eviltoast

“I don’t know if you saw this study the other day, but what this study clearly shows, is when people have the ability to come downtown to an office and don’t, when they stay home, sitting on their couch with their nasty cat blanket diddling on their laptop … if they do that for a few months, you become a loser! It’s a study. We’re not losers, are we?”
