In news that surprises nobody these days, our working-from-home contingency has been extended beyond October, until the end of the year.
And to think, I gulped in March when someone said it would last until the end of June! 42 weeks of working from home would have sent me into shock if I'd known what was coming in March. But then, you could say that about a lot of things.
What is interesting is that each time the Big Cheeses get together, they seem to be extending WFH at the half-way point of the next extension. For example, after 10 weeks, they ballooned it out to 20. Now we've hit 20 (this week is actually Week 22), we're off again to 42 (end of the year). You know what happens next? We get to November, and they extend to the following November... will we be working from home for ever?
I hope not. W-ing from H is proving challenging enough. Another freezing winter, sweltering summer and crunchy autumn, and I'll be feeling cracked up like old leather. If I'm going back at all, 2021 seems about right.
