> If only more companies would get on board with remote working. There is literally no need for 90% of people to be in the office 5 days a week.

This. Worse case scenario in a city with a diverse economy is 50%, that is half of the people don't really need to be there in the first place.

I work remotely for a company who's headquarters are in a district which is a textbook example of bad urban planning.

Each time I have to be there for some reason I witness a sea of people in cars and public transport taking literally minutes to cross one intersection and I wonder - how and why do they put up with this?
