Welcome to the Office. Now Take Off Your Shoes.

Lora Kelley | The New York Times

Some start-ups, blurring the lines between home and office, are embracing a “no shoes” policy.

Bosses are fighting a new battle in the RTO wars: It’s not about where you work, but when you work

Nick Lichtenberg | Fortune

For the past three years, the corporate world has been locked in a territorial dispute. The return-to-office (RTO) wars were defined by geography: the home versus the headquarters. But as 2025 unfolded, the front line shifted. According to a report from commercial real estate giant JLL, Workforce Preference Barometer 2025, the most critical conflict between employers and employees is no longer about location—it is about time.

Hoover Institution

The Unbearable Joy of Sitting Alone in A Café

Candost

When you let your thoughts wander, they take you on a journey you’ll never think possible. You reflect on the smallest details of your fast life. Your brain absorbs all the mistakes you’ve made. You accept that you can’t change failures anymore, as much as you feel guilty.

You might as well not worry about them and focus on what you can change: what you do now. And what you will do next.
