News: wework's ideal life, for a day

http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2019/10/i-lived-adam-neumanns-perfect-life-for-a-dayit-was-dismal.html

Well it looks like things are over priced and generally not that cool.  The nap room with a person snoring.  The workers who confuse appointments, maybe that isn't special to WeWork.  But yeah, white claw happy hours and empty bars.  Do people really want a totally integrated social life?  Why are the tiny apartments so expensive.  The writer ends up doing his work on the toilet.

The co-working spaces seem empty.  I don't know much about the wework people, but I know there is some drama, he resigned or something.  Well yeah, the business seems to be pretty silly.  Why pay more for something that sucks? Some friends of mine said that their office was cheaper than wework, and they get to leave all their shit there every day.  With wework you'd have to pack it out, or pay way too much for a permanent office.  Somehow I don't think this takes the cultures around the world into account.  Is everyone expected to use public space the same way? 

Who does WeWork work for, do you know? I would like to.  Currently I do not know.
