People on bikes may be rude and may not follow the rules, but can't be aggressive.

When a man with a .45 meets a man with a rifle, the man with a pistol will be a dead man.

Me too. There's usually an unbroken line of jammed-up cars from my home all the way to my workplace, and I get to ride past it on a separated bike lane.
Every day I walk into the office with a smile on my face.

My company have 3 days home office 2 in the office, but I like to go everyday to the office mainly because I love to start the day with a 30 minutes bike ride.

My company has the same policy. I like to go every day cause like you, the commute is a bonus instead of lost time.
And also, I have ADHD and need to be in the office to be motivated to work.

Lmao, same for me. I understand that some people are more productive on home, specially if they're already tired for the commute and transit when they're finally on the office. But for me, in house they are so many distractions, that I can't really finish anything in time.
