      I’m an office worker. I work on automation.

      Where’s that leave me? Who automates the automaters?

      Also, from the office work I’ve seen, and compared against WFH, I’d agree to SOME reduced productivity - like 20% - but which is regained by allowing experienced people clear work time without interruption (which we get in remote work). The other 80% may actually be difficult to automate as trivially as required for any gains here.
