With all the enforced working at home, I wonder if, all this is a painful memory, employers will find out how much work can be done at home and there will be an increase in allowing it?
For a big change, this enforced working at home period will need to show some big benefit to an employer, like lower costs and increased productivity. It will be interesting to see what happens.
Living rurally as I do, with no cable...I think one of the first issues is the load on the internet. I read an interesting article this week about how Netflix is handling so many folks staying-at-home.
I know we've had so many cultural advances the past two hundred years...but it seems like we're on the verge of a HUGE change. Interesting times and all that.
I think you're right about possible big changes. Took the recycling out today. Usually by Friday, it's overflowing with cardboard, paper, bottles. This time, just a few bags of stuff and almost no cardboard.
My work is pushing hard on wfh right now. They told me I had to do an internet speed test. So I did and I texted a picture of the results to one of my supervisors. The results were, and this is a direct quote, "Your internet is slow."
They just sent the central triage nurses home for the virus, though, so we're probably next.
