First full day working from home today. Wasn't too bad, although it does make one realise 1) how little "offices" are needed today and 2) how little you generally get done on an average workday. I definitely won't complain about being able to endure my weekly gauntlet of Tuesday morning conference calls from bed, however.
I wonder how long all this stuff going on with the pandemic right now is going to last. There are a lot of jokes going around about how introverted nerds have been mastering "social distancing" (why does it need a fancy name?) for many years now… but, y'know, as an introverted nerd I am genuinely kind of appreciating the opportunity to be able to do my day job from a comfortable environment, and without having to interact directly with other people.
It won't last, of course, so I'm going to make the best of what is, rationally speaking, a fairly bad situation for the world as a whole to be in. Every cloud has a silver lining and all that; I know I certainly don't miss my morning commute, which isn't long, but it is annoying.
Plus I get to hang out with my cats while I work, which is something to be celebrated!
