I'll never forget getting called into a meeting last year on March 10 and being told "this is serious and we're treating it seriously. Take your gear home and expect to work from home until told otherwise."From my company who does not make snap judgements or quick decisions, this was a big deal.And I fucking... Continue Reading →

Covid 19-Work from home day 68
Another week done. I took a half day today for reasons. Work is progressing. Trying to keep my partners on task and not get bogged down in pointless early-stage minutiae.
