Who is working from home during this quarantine time?
- Thread starter captain
- Start date
Our CEO told all that worked at the corporate campus that could work from home to do so.

Tranferd from service to Construction. Just took on large behind schedule county building . Due to school shutdowns no service work . With nearly 24 years experience in both construction and service of life safety it's like riding a bike . Ya never forget. Nothing out of the norm in construction.

Work from home??
What . . drive 27 miles to work with trailer, pick up bike or quad to be serviced, drive home 27 miles. Service quad or bike while waiting for parts to turn up by courier, return to work again , drop off bike or quad, look at clock, day is over, return home.
Repeat.
Nah . . I'll just work at work lol.
We don't call it 'quarantine' here . . . it's been re-named with a nice PC term . .
"Self isolation".
What is that about?

Thankfully I don’t have to depend on work anymore but my daughter in law’s employer in SF just closed down for three weeks. So far my sons job as an electrician is ok except for their renovation of one of Zuckerberg’s homes in SF. My daughter in SoCal is doing Online instruction but her softball season has been suspended at least for a few weeks. There, Spring break is coming soon anyway. Whatever ‘it,’ is, hopefully it’s manageable and temporary.
I’m on my monthly week off from work and have been staying home, because I have a really bad sinus infection and this pollen doesn’t help, but I was just catching up on work emails and saw that the company has cancelled all travel, big meetings and is asking everyone to get with IT department to make sure their laptops have all the needed programs for them to work from home. I’m what they call a frontline supervisor, so I’ll have to stick to my normal schedule, but I’m sure all I’ll have is a skeleton crew to keep the department running and non essential personnel will stay home. We already have an employee that had a family member test positive, so he called HR and told them he was going to self quarantine and the company has notified all of the employee’s coworkers that had been in touch with him.

The GF will not be happy!
The wife specifically told me I'm not allowed to have a girlfriend...
I laughed and said "who'd want an old, balding, retired guy anyway..." she replied "oh yeah, yuk, and I'm stuck with you.."

If that is not permission and encouragement to grab the busa and head out for a ride I don't know what is!
Love to but there is too much snow....
