Looking forward to heading to work tomorrow. I have an office by myself so other than public transport there and back I think I’m ok. Lack of routine is an awful curse.

Routine is a big one. Reading reports from places that are deep in lockdown and timetables and adhering to them seem to be a recurring coping mechanism that’s helping people

It’s frightening the amount of morons working in the public service that can’t follow a simple guide to logging onto a VPN or join teams meetings.

Or someone who wanted to create an entire new team for every call they wanted to make via teams

Mary at Home: I can’t connect to my drives

Ambrose: Have you the VPN running, Mary?

Mary at Home: No, I don’t

Ambrose: Fuck off and die you stupid Cunt, Mary.

Having issues logging in from home today. Presenteeism is wonderful from home.

You’d nearly need to be at the house sitting beside them every time they log in. The vast majority of our staff need basic ECDL training

Tell Mary that someone in the house is streaming from pornhub and breaching policy

How can send them the instructions? WhatsApp or Gmail I guess. I doubt they have work email in their phones

Back in tomorrow evening (hopefully)
Never looked forward so much in my life to go to work.

Spent the last 15 mins setting up the spare room as the wfh office for the next few weeks and already hate it. Knowing there’s only brown bread, nature’s best bars and the wife downstairs instead of a vending machine and dirty Denise from accounts is grim.

Anyone know if commercial tenants have any grounds for rental rebate/suspension when;

  1. Business decides that employees will WFH; or

  2. Legislation/Government directive to WFH

No one knows because the Govt hasn’t said anything about rents yet, commercial or domestic. Best bet is pray your landlord isn’t a scumbag and call them

You could just sign up to this and hope for the best
