Anecdotal Observation 1: My daily journey involves a local train ride from a large main station. The inquiry staff no longer sit at desks in a counter/office.

Anecdotal Observation 2: Teaching: this time of year we are advising and assessing large numbers of prospective students. Used to be rows of PCs/monitors. Now again, tablets in use and colleagues just use their phones. Far more mobile and a lot less queuing up to see people &c.
