I have never felt lonielier than when I am surrounded by people who can tell me what to do. Build more third places instead please.
What a ridiculous article. In-person jobs exist. Plenty of employers are forcing employees to return to the office, and job seekers are abandoning them like mice off a sinking ship. If anyone, Gen Z or otherwise, wanted to work in an office, they could. Remote work from home gives employees greater flexibility and control over their own work/life balance. It is objectively better for the employee, and now that we have it, nobody wants to give it back.
Gen Z is lonely because they have no dislosable income and we’re still reeling from a poorly managed pandemic. If wages go up, and rent comes down, people will be a lot less lonely.
This article reads like some CEO association paid a tabloid journalist to write propaganda about how wonderful on-site work is. Any longer and the article would seem almost … desperate.
And you can wear a funny tie on Fridays! What fun!!!
From previous comments I’ve seen, you’ve just summed up Business Insider.
“for some”
For others lonliesness would be cured by more exercise, less social media, and livable wages.
Next month, “How working 70 hours a week can help your depression.”
for some.
Yeah, maybe. Loneliness cured by the “family” in the office shudder
Business Insider article, NOT a Psychology Today article. Consider the source, it’s perspective, bias, and motivations.
Homeless folks are cold, jackets may be the cure for some 🤡
"Nearly one in four people worldwide — which translates into more than a billion people — feel very or fairly lonely, according to a recent Meta-Gallup survey of more than 140 countries.”
“Notably, these numbers could be even higher. The survey represents approximately 77% of the world’s adults because it was not asked in the second-most populous country in the world, China.”

The thing about loneliness is everybody thinks they’re the exception
eh, a few sacrifices must be made then
Not even that. The majority of jobs won’t stop you from going to the office, even if you have a wfh job
Millennials are fighting to never go back while Gen Z is pushing hard to return. The differences in generations is really showing.

Good answer
Lol Gen Z is doing do such thing.
Only if you assume the site called Business Insider has no motivation to pit groups against each other and try to encourage not working from home.
It is a subsidiary of the German publisher Axel Springer SE, the largest in Europe.
That means absolutely nothing to what I said.
It invalidates your statement. It’s business news.
Uhh…did you even read what I said?
I never said “This isn’t relevant to this community”
I said “This site has clear bias motivation to make this argument”
It invalidates nothing.
Ok sparky.
