What do you think about people working from cafes these days?

It's up to the cafe whether they allow it. I could never work in a cafe, though. I prefer some privacy when I work.

I could never work from a cafe, too much distraction!

I don't mind as long as it's efficient work. Sometimes a change of setting can help someone be more productive.

I wonder how do they keep themselves attentive to work.

Well, I have mixed feelings about it. If you do it because there is no other place to work ( you work remotely, there is no coworking nearby, there is something wrong with wifi in your place), then it's okay. But I know some people who do it just because it's "cool", then sorry, it's not cool. Sometimes I want to have a coffee and there is no place to sit because of people with their laptops. And some of them don't even work, just chilling, and it's annoying.

Dont really mind it if the cafe is empty. Gets annoying when the cafe is packed and you are trying to find a seat...

I typically have productivity spurs of about 2-3 hours. Perfect to order 2 drinks and some food. Growing up with parents that had a restaurant I can see the annoyance regarding people who order 1 small coffee and stay for 7 hours, even if the cafe is empty. So definitely a "make sure both parties benefit from the arrangement" kind of situation.

A shift in work culture, blurring the lines between personal and professional spaces.

A reflection of the growing trend of remote work and flexible work arrangements.

Depends on personal preference and the nature of the work. Some find it energizing and inspiring, while others find it distracting.

Depends on individual, but can stimulate creative juices with all the surrounding stimuli.

If the cade isn't crowded, it's alright. But if during peak hours people are enqueued to get seated, while plenty of tables are occupied by this, ahem, workers — nah, that's not cool

I love them, I’m one of them ))
