Day One in Captivity

[The Shaggy D.A.]

After the powers that be have decided we're working from home as of today, I've found...

1. Dining room chairs hurt my arse after 2 hours. This will need sorting.
2. A laptop with a second monitor doesn't cut it when you are used to 3 wide screen monitors. This too will need sorting.
3. You can fart as loudly and as often as you wish.
4. It's nice to have music on.
5. The kitchen staff aren't as accommodating as those in the works cafe, but they do grudgingly deliver to my desk.

Anyone else been sent home?

Since Monday.

I'm also told to limit my access to the vpn because it's not designed to have everyone working from home so no emails.

Yeah I've been at home since Friday last week. Just been shopping for essentials. It consisted of:
2 x bottles of red wine
1 x 4 pack of stella
1 x bag of pork scratchings
1 x king pot noodle (chick n mush)
1 x sirloin steak from the butchers

Should get me through today. Will have to venture out tomorrow to see what they've got.

Most people try to make best use of thier time in this captivity.

Not me , I’ve spent the morning playing with my cat with a piece of string on a stick
So adult, so productive, but I had fun

Does having to book holiday days rather than losing them count as being sent home?

Either way, I'm home for 17 days, 16 of which I know I'm going to get completely rat arsed

Been home since Friday, very handy having a dodgy internet connection meaning my daily stand up meetings keep dropping out. Server can't handle the traffic either so my productivity is horrendous. Loving it so far!

Broke into a few houses looking for containers for fuel.

Broke open some car fuel caps in my road, and siphoned some fuel off, topped up bike and car, and stored the rest in the shed.

Went round houses in my street and dragged all the rotting corpses out, placed in pile, doused in petrol and burned. That's a few less round my way to come back after dark looking for living flesh to feed on.

Broke into storage area of local Tesco and got a decent haul of canned foods that hadn't yet been put out on the shelves. Still more in there, secured it.

The above translates to:
Started a spring clean at home by washing inside of windows and frames

I started home working today.

It's really hard to be @rsed to do anything.

Best thing is having a sh1t with the door wide open.

(Not the front door).

Today, my employer told me I'm staying at home tomorrow (going back in on Friday), because there are 8 lawyers were I work and he says at this time of the national crisis there's no need for all of us to be at work at once. So, we take turns in who stays at home and when (100% pay). He says three lawyers at work should do. My supervisor already called in sick and my colleague called his son might have been exposed to the virus so he's in quarantine until all the tests are done.

The good thing about all this is, that the servers at work actually do work and the whole system is much faster than usual. It's actually ''joy'' to use those computers these days.

ALSO, I'm not doing any home office crap, as it is not allowed to take any legal documents out of the office. #Lawyerd.

No Win no Fee?

You must have some free time to start some cases.

I think this CoronaVirus has given me Whiplash.

I already work mostly from home, or visit people in their homes but because of the nature of the work I do, I can't work at all right now. The missus also works from home but luckily she rarely has to meet people face-to-face so she can still work and we still have some income. Still, at least it gives me a chance to do all those little jobs that need doing but I never seem to have the time to do.

We've got a 15k vpn licence and almost 150k users. Times are hard

I'm.in the office as skeleton staff policy comes in.

Told us to work from home yesterday. The best part is it's nice and quiet, which gives me a nice break from having to have headphones on for 8 hours a day to drown out the idiots. it's not really anything new since I could always work from home. I was surprised how many people dont even have a desk

We've already had about 10 documents sent around with crap advice about drinking water and going for regular walks to keep yourself sane.

Everyone's also trying to find some way to socialise over the internet with games and stuff, because apparently nobody has anyone to talk to outside of work

I am down to my last 2 bog rolls though so it's not all great.
