again I am left wondering why people keep going for the B&B Hotels (TM) personal living room experience instead of like, a laundry service or catered food or any other dozen of services people regularly need anways that would entice them to come to the office because they'd save time. Equipping every office space with a simulacra of somewhere you'd want to be can't come cheaper than striking a business deal with some sort of dry cleaning service 3 houses over
The issue is it's a one time expense vs recurring expense.
Sofas for your moron employees goes on capex table, dry cleaning is opex and investors want opex as low as possible to extract money.
It's the reason Google used the pandemic to stop offering services to employees. Austerity has hit those offices 4 times over now.
Capex sofas are the consolation prize.
