Martha Stewart Tells Workers To Do 1 Thing So U.S. Doesn't 'Go Down The Drain'

The lifestyle magnate picked on France to make her point.

The “doyenne of domesticity ” now wants people to get out of the house.

Martha Stewart urged workers to return to the office full time and says she’s on a “rampage” to get it done.

“You can’t possibly get everything done working three days a week in the office and two days remotely,” Stewart told Footwear News in an interview posted this week.

Stewart took a few shots at France to make her point, accusing the nation of not being industrious enough.

“Look at the success of France with their stupid … you know, off for August, blah, blah, blah,” Stewart said. “That’s not a very thriving country. Should America go down the drain because people don’t want to go back to work?”

The work-from-home trend, a vestige of the pandemic, is either over or still booming , depending on which statistics you rely on.

But there’s no disputing that many people would prefer to toil de la maison.

According to a survey from Pew Research shared in late March, 34% of work-from-homers would like to keep working there full time.

Stewart, 81, has certainly been getting out. Last month, she became the oldest cover model for Sports Illustrated’s swimsuit issue.
