funny you should mention that (I know you're being sarcastic :)

Overall, our results suggest that the rise in remote work and TFP growth are positively correlated. From 2019 to 2021, the (weighted) average percentage-point increase in remote workers across industries was 14.9. This suggests that the rise in remote work was associated with an average 1.2 percentage-points increase in industry-level TFP.
