News Roundtable: Future of American Cities and Working From Home

Kevin Siskar and Tim Shisler are at it again, discussing the current news in our world today.

Ambition Today New Roundtable

Kevin Siskar and Tim Shisler are at it again, discussing the current news in our world today. Each person brings one topic to the table and they talk about them both.

The Future of American Cities:

Kevin starts by discussing how he lived in NYC for almost a decade and how he has seen the cost of living increased significantly during that time. Witnessing how commercial real estate investors have increased their rent so much that small shops are no longer able to handle the cost. 50% of all restaurants in NYC are going to close due to COVID 19, with 12,000 being closed already. So many people think big cities might be dying, but looking at the next few years, Tim and Kevin discuss will the city economies be able to come back?

The Rise of Remote Work:

Tim talks about how it was hard for him to transition to remote work once COVID-19 forced a lot of the world’s workforce to remote. Making it work is a lot about having a plan and being diligent about time and how you carve it out. Routine is key. There is a fine line between work life and home life, the separation needs to be balanced. Should you be working at 8pm when you have a significant other? When working in an office, the commute is there to help you shift out of work mode, what do you no longer have that transition time while working from home. This is also the time where it really shines on the people that really care about their work, vs. the people that were just working to have a job. This is a big topic right now, because working from home is definitely not for everyone.
