Why young Singaporeans are ready to go back to the office
Gen Zs and young millennials weigh new-found flexibility and their careers
DESPITE not having experienced much of what being in the office five days a week feels like, Zhou Yu Shan, 22, cannot wait to be back at her seat at the corner of the office. To her, working in the office promises a healthy social life in the workplace - of lunches with colleagues and conversations in person.
"At first, I was quite happy to be able to work from home. But it's been about a month now and it feels suffocating because there is no social interaction. I'm always alone," says Ms Zhou, who is currently on a marketing internship.
She is not the only one.
