As we move out of the phase where everything was taking place remotely we may not return to a traditional 40-hour, behind-a-desk work week but in-person meetings are occasionally a necessity. These are a great way to touch base, build morale, compare notes, and generally keep business flowing. Rentable space is also handy for nonprofits, groups, and charitable organizations prepping for an event or families scheduling long overdue weddings, reunions, birthdays, and anniversaries.
