Thanks for posting this John. I've always admired Charlie and Warren ... I feared that they'd be saying something else in this video, but they are always practical and pragmatic. I'd add to this too: it's not just enginneers that are in this place ... he also mentions directors (board of) ... but I think it's mid level teams, managers, individual contributors. I work with companies that are fully remote now and they were traditionally in office. It's a big shift and many are still getting used to it.

Enlightened People ROCK✨ PS It feels like a tipping point for corporate office spaces. Warren (92) and Charlie (99) set profitability standards/ benchmarks - office spaces will start to be seen as an unnecessary ‘luxury’. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlie_Munger

It will be interesting to see how USCIS and other immigration services respond to remote work. We always had to justify the need of physical presence for the transfer of employees, but I believe it will become even more difficult.

Great share John. Just goes to show that not all billionaires and business leaders in their 90s are 🦕 CEOs! #BeLikeCharlie

“Don’t think it’s necessary for all these god damn meetings to be flown in an airplane for, we at Hathaway have been doing them on the phone or with consent minutes forever” Saying it again for those in the back!! It is great to hear from experience and not ego.
