Few worlds blew apart with the pandemic like our lives at the office.
COVID-19 upended countless everyday workflows, habits and human interactions built around a culture shared daily and face to face at the workplace. Downtown Salt Lake City streets, its office towers, lunchtime eateries and mass transit lines remain ghosted of most of their usual inhabitants, though foot traffic has returned with business reopenings.
