In my experience there is also a bunch of jobs in the technical field that in
principal could be done remotely, but suffer due to lack of technical
knowledge of the person you are interacting with. An example I think everyone
can relate to is tech support for your parents. In my experience that is a lot
easier when standing next to them. And a lot of tech jobs are about explaining
technology to people who don't have experience with that specific tech yet.

Probably better end user tools. Better software, microphones, cameras,
situational awareness.

I can do everything remote, but 30% is slower because the tools get in the
way. In my team, things are arguably better. Crossing team boundaries sucks.

I’m design equipment and automation for biology labs. Much of my work is done
at a computer and now I’m 90% WFH. Takeaways so far: \- Remote meetings are
better than 10 years ago. But still room to gain. \- remote design reviews of
physical products are lacking engagement from the team. Being in the same room
helps a ton. \- running actual chemistry needs a lab of course \- managing a
team of software engineers, hardware engineers and scientists is ok in JIRA,
but nothing beats in person discussion for a diverse team.
