Is the mayor joking? No remote workers from the suburbs want to go back into crime filled NYC on the covid filled trains/subway! If someone commutes into the city, I won't allow him/her in my home, vaccinated or not, too risky.

Yep if you're in a town in LI or Westchester then pretty much the only way you get COVID is through friends, family or your kids.
So if your neighbor commutes into the city then he's bringing Omicron right into the community.
If they can hire people overseas to do many jobs why do people have to come back to the office, what does it matter where you're sitting at as long as the job is getting done? It's between the love of micromanaging and those long commercial leases.

How silly of the mayor to think white collar workers with the option of WFH will go back to the office just to support the rest of the ecosystem. Provide some incentives like tax breaks for people who go into the office.
I love how people make the excuse of covid going back to work. Just be real and say you don't want to. I work in person with hundreds, haven't got covid yet. It's really not that big of deal.
Maybe they can mandate people go back to work and waste time on commute and $20 lunches.
Its like asking companies to go back to using fax instead of emails. Not happening. You closed down the city, people adopted and are better off for it.
