In-person meetings too. My company used to fly people across the country for one-day meetings. In a shocking revelation, that turned out to be unnecessary when the pandemic forced most meetings to be virtual.

Great gods. I don’t even drive across town for staff meetings. There’s always a video call alternative, and about half our personnel use it.
