We are now ten months into a pandemic that has changed work-life balance for a lot of people. And many Americans say they are doing well in their home offices and dining room workstations. Most want to continue working from home after the pandemic. Several kinds of businesses that had depended on office workers may be affected. For instance, many office workers attended weekly happy hours or paid for their clothing to be dry cleaned. These are the findings of new studies published by the Pew Research Center and the University of Chicago’s Becker Friedman Institute. The Pew study of 5,800 working adults in mid-October found that the change has been easy for most. They have remained productive. And, on balance, it has given people more control over how they use their time. That is different from the common ideas that home offices are full of technical problems and family distractions.
