So, I was watching something on a particular platform that I had just set up on my TV for the first time.

We moved to our office at the beginning of 2018, I believe it was. Since then, we've lost a chunk of people (one division was moved to a subsidiary and then out of the office altogether) and moved to a hybrid work from home schedule. As such, we've got a lot of space that we no longer need, so they've been looking for a new location. This building (which is still a candidate to stay in if they can rework the lease to their liking) is low on amenities. One of the candidate office looks really nice though. I'm trying to put my thumb on the scale for that one.
