Personally, I’m fine with that but that’s why I said I’d be out of a job. The USA designed its cities badly.

It's not about whether or not you'd be fine with it. It's an explanation for why bosses want everyone back in the office. Yes, there's an emotional narcissism to management across the US, but I don't think that's enough to explain the RTO phenomenon. It's more likely driven by the fact that a collapse of commercial real estate value would destroy so much value in the economy that every executive would lose millions, and some would lose billions.
