Remote Work Is Not Here to Stay
Enjoy it while it lasts.
The spread of the novel coronavirus has pushed companies to rely on remote work in recent months. Some think this practice could (finally) be here to stay, touting laundry lists of benefits to employees and employers alike.
Unfortunately for those of us whose employers didn’t already have a work-from-home structure in place, the pros don’t outweigh the cons. This practice will be unsustainable for them in the long term and means we’ll all be back in the office eventually.
I haven’t had the “good fortune” of working from home during the quarantine season. I’ve still been going into the office each day, but I am experiencing the effects of 1/3 of my staff working from remote locations, including their homes. I am very much looking forward to having my team back together in the same location.
The appeal of working from home.
Dressing comfortably
Who wouldn’t love being able to work in yoga pants?! Not going into an office means there’s no need for business casual attire. And so long as you don’t have any Zoom meetings, no one will know the difference.
