I feel this. I used to work in a 1970s era courthouse building. Dimly lit and filled with archive boxes. Winding deadend corridors. My cubicle was undeniably my private workspace. Only office environment I kinda miss.
The quad-plex half-cubicle shared workspace that office moved to was garbage. A leading factor in my eventual departure actually. Work environment means a lot. Nothing beats remote work though.
I used to work in an underground converted corridor surrounded by machines. Extremely hot under load, no windows, and you’d have to drink water constantly in summer to maintain an even temp. It was a great place to think and work. Internet was severely limited to LAN, so you’d have no distractions.
Whilst I don’t miss the noxious environment I do miss the clarity of thought and the sheer productivity
