Lesson: Remote Work
Has there been a ‘lockdown’ yet? COVID-19 has caused significant disruption in our lives. It took some time for some to adjust to the ‘lockdown.’ A stern scolding from Justin Trudeau, the Prime Minister of Canada, seems to have done the trick, though. “We’ve all seen the pictures online of people who seem to think they’re invincible. Well, you’re not. Enough is enough. Go home and stay home.” Now they have to work from home too. Remote work sounds like heaven. You can sleep in and wear your PJs all day. However, heaven has been greatly exaggerated. Yes, I can do it, but that’s me. Not everyone is built for this style of work. Let’s discuss remote work after you’ve been told to “…go home and stay home.” Take care and wash your hands.
