Publish Not your original work? Add source Over a year into the pandemic seemingly is giving more insight into what the post-pandemic world would potentially look like. So many things, including our daily social life and working habits, most likely have changed already and perhaps they will keep on evolving and never even go back to their previous forms. The all-knowing and all-opinion-sharing Reddit online group r/AskReddit was asked by its member u/sinosty, who dropped the surely thought-provoking question 'What will never be the same again once the pandemic is over?' It seems that that wearing bras might not make a comeback, as well as touching any surface and not thinking about washing your hands or grabbing your sanitizer immediately. It also could have 'normalized' some things that were less common, such as adults living with their parents or wearing face coverings in public. Below are the best examples of the predictions shared by people online. More info: Reddit This post may include affiliate links. #1 Let's wear masks in public whenever we might be feeling under the weather. I always thought that a very sensible and considerate gesture to make when I saw it being done in other parts of the world. loopnlil , CardMapr.nl Report Final score: 239points POST Saateri Saateri Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago I sure hope this habit will stick. 58 58points reply View More Replies...

As much as I like eating, and watching movies at home. Sometimes there is nothing like getting out of the house and being able to enjoy a good movie or a meal out.
Though I do hope this causes movie prices to go down. $20 for a movie, and even BEFORE the Pandemic hit, most movies weren't even worth that money. Randym1982 , forumcinemas Report Final score: 97points POST Elsker Elsker Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago I'm afraid prices won't go down. I did miss going to the movies or out to dinner. But it's not as if we're going to go to restaurants every day now to make up for all lost diners.

View more comments #21 I have a slightly different take on some of this stuff—like handshakes, hugging, and casual physical contact.
I think we’re gonna go back to doing these things just as soon as we feel it’s safe. (I know some parts of the country people already are, for better or worse...) But it’s so important for human interaction. I just think we’re going to actually appreciate how important these things are.
Just being close to someone and looking them in the eye after shaking their hand or patting them on the back is critical to making a personal connection. Yeah I know masks don’t cover your eyes but not being able to see half of someone’s face is terrible when it comes to basic human interaction. SovietTrollFarm , Ricardo Moraleida Report Final score: 88points POST HooowlAtTheMoon HooowlAtTheMoon Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago I'm a very touchy person, so I live for hugs and holding hands and stuff. My friend saw me when I was turning in work at my school and he came up to me and gave me a big hug and it was so nice I started crying in front of everybody there.

There will be fewer people working in offices than before, but I don’t think permanent WFH is going to catch on as much as people predict. While some people love WFH, some people hate it, or they are unable to do it effectively, and I think over time there will be some recruitment and retention issues. Those who want to WFH will migrate to companies that are full WFH, while those who want to work in an office will migrate to those jobs. yyz_guy , r.a. paterson Report Final score: 64points POST Gay_Forg Gay_Forg Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago WFH Is work from home right? 32 32points reply View More Replies...

63Kviews Irmante Sungailaite andLukas Garnelis
Publish Not your original work? Add source Over a year into the pandemic seemingly is giving more insight into what the post-pandemic world would potentially look like. So many things, including our daily social life and working habits, most likely have changed already and perhaps they will keep on evolving and never even go back to their previous forms. The all-knowing and all-opinion-sharing Reddit online group r/AskReddit was asked by its member u/sinosty, who dropped the surely thought-provoking question 'What will never be the same again once the pandemic is over?' It seems that that wearing bras might not make a comeback, as well as touching any surface and not thinking about washing your hands or grabbing your sanitizer immediately. It also could have 'normalized' some things that were less common, such as adults living with their parents or wearing face coverings in public. Below are the best examples of the predictions shared by people online. More info: Reddit This post may include affiliate links. #1 Let's wear masks in public whenever we might be feeling under the weather. I always thought that a very sensible and considerate gesture to make when I saw it being done in other parts of the world. loopnlil , CardMapr.nl Report Final score: 239points POST Saateri Saateri Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago I sure hope this habit will stick. 58 58points reply View More Replies...

As much as I like eating, and watching movies at home. Sometimes there is nothing like getting out of the house and being able to enjoy a good movie or a meal out.
Though I do hope this causes movie prices to go down. $20 for a movie, and even BEFORE the Pandemic hit, most movies weren't even worth that money.

I did miss going to the movies or out to dinner. But it's not as if we're going to go to restaurants every day now to make up for all lost diners.

View more comments #21 I have a slightly different take on some of this stuff—like handshakes, hugging, and casual physical contact.
I think we’re gonna go back to doing these things just as soon as we feel it’s safe. (I know some parts of the country people already are, for better or worse...) But it’s so important for human interaction. I just think we’re going to actually appreciate how important these things are.
Just being close to someone and looking them in the eye after shaking their hand or patting them on the back is critical to making a personal connection. Yeah I know masks don’t cover your eyes but not being able to see half of someone’s face is terrible when it comes to basic human interaction.

There will be fewer people working in offices than before, but I don’t think permanent WFH is going to catch on as much as people predict. While some people love WFH, some people hate it, or they are unable to do it effectively, and I think over time there will be some recruitment and retention issues. Those who want to WFH will migrate to companies that are full WFH, while those who want to work in an office will migrate to those jobs. yyz_guy , r.a. paterson Report Final score: 64points POST Gay_Forg Gay_Forg Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago WFH Is work from home right? 32 32points reply View More Replies...
