See here's the thing. The commute doesn't need to be the nightmare that you're describing. A country with developed infrastructure can get you to your job on foot or by bicycle in 5-10 minutes. A culture that doesn't expect and demand that has a problem, and the fix isn't to just do all interaction by screen.

I know I sound like your manager, because managers get talking points that have been distilled for them by PR firms, that have picked out the reasonable and good arguments for their position, and then they corrupt it for their own agenda. But I am not your manager, and I'm not some "extrovert" either. I'm just someone who doesn't want to interact with other people only through a screen and only at designated times, i.e. a normal person.

When I talk organization, I don't mean organizing the work, by the way. I mean: organizing the anti-work.

Yeah no that's just plain wrong. Even in countries with good infrastructure/public transport it can still take ages to get to work, even if you live in the same city. Cities are just too big; you can't really choose to live close to your workplace, especially in this current housing crisis.
