Back in the office

Finishing my first week back today, it's been a weird time. Feels like it has gone so fast! How is everyone else doing, when is your working from home continuing to, or have you gone back to 'normal' already? What has changed?

I've bought a bright plant for my desk to cheer it up a bit. And we've been allowed a relaxed clothing policy, our 'dress down' wear is fine for every day at the moment. Which is a life saver(!) Could definitely not fit in to my work skirts if you paid me.

Actually my best mate has a daughter who is a nurse in a south london hospital and there COVID ward has closed and my manager at work in Sheffield knows a nurse in a Sheffield hospital and that hospital has no COVID patients. So in the UK in is not that bad

Just finished my second week back in the office. I agree that it's kinda weird. Some of the people I work with are acting weird and almost don't want to help me accomplish what I need from them. As far as the dress code goes...I'm glad to be putting the professional attire back on and getting to a normalcy, but my skirts are a bit snug too. 🙄

My work is trying to encourage people to return for meetings. I'm waiting for the second wave to crash that party

@plungesponge thats just sad way of thinking but I am with you on this

It's idiots like my boss that are going to ensure there's a second wave

I went back too. It’s super quiet. I even went out for a couple beers afterwards. Feeling good getting back to normal. Slowly.

@annamk I think your point re how good it is to have a reason to get smartened up is a serious mental health one

@Royrogers Yeah, was so easy to get in a rut, lazy habits
