If Australia's 2nd largest bank is moving to a permanent hybrid office/non-office operating model (see article below), a fair percentage of corporations must be also considering such long term options.

Then that raises the question of where office based people will work for 50% of the working week. Where will they go when distractions at home start driving them nuts. Perhaps if Myers downsize their floor space nationally, that could free up communal working hubs to start springing up in shopping centres. Book in the days/hrs you need, employer pays. Food courts and gyms located in centres. Good broad based income stream for shopping centre owners. I would not be surprised to see some smart entrepreneurs replicate a business model similar to the casual 24/7 gyms that have popped up all over the place.

The local shopping centre may see more weekday patronage.
