00:00We'll probably be moving back towards the office over the next couple of years.
00:04There's still going to be quite a few people that stay in there.
00:07I think the hybrid's going to stay.
00:09And, well, my partner, she works in the office.
00:12She's a bit of both, but she is slowly bringing a comeback to it.
00:15But she does get a lot more work done at home.
00:20And, yeah, she works in probation,
00:22so she does struggle with a lot of, like, the visits and stuff.
00:25But she's, yeah, I think the hybrid working is good.
00:29It's one of the good things that come out of COVID.
00:31So I can go either way, really.
00:33Yeah.
00:34Like, some people obviously feel more comfortable working from home.
00:37It doesn't really affect me too much.
00:38I think it's going to continue.

00:50because usually you don't go into work unless...
00:52If you've got something that's spreadable, like a cold, you know.
00:55So, yeah, I think it's an excellent idea.
00:58And I think it's more productive as well.
01:00But then, yeah.
01:01Yeah.
01:02Meanwhile.
