    Now we need a survey where CEOs say everyone should work from an office 5 days per week, even though it saves them money when people don't.

          I worked at One Canada Square last year. The building didn't seem that busy and on the floors I was based on, I'd say it was only 15-20% occupied on the days I went in.

          However, Canary Wharf in general seemed busier than I expected, having never worked there before and same goes for the Elizabeth line that has a stop there.

            This was predicted to happen after Brexit. Brexit is the cause of banks moving out of the UK.

                I am in Canary Wharf Wednesdays and Thursdays.

                It looks quite busy to me and I have worked there on and off for 15 years.
