Along_the_Wire Me? I’m an independent contractor, so there’s no promotion, unless I give it to myself 
The Covid19 WFH Thread
Kells77 Ever considered making more money? LOL
Along_the_Wire I’m already making quite a bit, but yeah, there’s always room for more 
I went into the office for the 2nd time in 4 months this week. We have been split into two different teams, with a one week in, one week out rota. Although we are actively encouraged to stay at home if we can work from home. Going forward, when it’s my week to be ‘in’ I will probably go into the office for 2 of the 5 days available. The commute is 25 minutes and it’s good to actually see some colleagues, albeit at a social distance. Also good to be able to sort paperwork, printing etc out if needed.
Our CEO has started to plan for the next few weeks and suggested that the two team split can end soon, so that you can go into work on any week you like. Still with a work from home message though. Can’t fault my employer at all, they have been superb - flexible hours, provided all equipment needed, rolled out counselling sessions for anyone who needs it. Very fortunate to work for them at the moment.
Sounds awesome GCW.
My company is the same, no pressure to come in but more than welcome to if we want to.
Whatever works best for us.
An open, honest and trusting culture.
Which I think drives performance.
Correct Smallman, culture eats strategy for breakfast
A Purpose driven workforce can achieve wonderful things!
Working from home is the bollocks! Wee seat out the back when it’s warm at lunchtime followed by a nap and a chilled lager in the pm….magic.
5 days later
Fuck me, I’ve had the worst WFH morning of all-time. I thought I had this deadline for Tuesday for a really big piece of work, but something was nagging at me during the night and just double-checked at 6am - it was for midday today. I’ve never worked so hard and been as stressed as this morning - having to get a document completed, designed, proof read and amended, then perfect bound and then biked over whilst working remotely has been nothing short of horrific. I really could do with a stiff drink.
Along_the_Wire sounds horrific bud. I’ve been in situations like that a few times. That moment when you finally realise why you can’t sleep. Lol. Literally your subconscious screaming at you ‘you daft cunt! Its for tomorrow!’
Worst is when you leave the office, have a couple after work, get stuck into the train beers and then wake up about an hour before work and have to do your ‘homework’ on the commute.
What are you banging on about Dave you daft idiot?
Look at all these plebs and their “work”. I make decisions and pilot the ship, I don’t scrub the deck FFS.
You must have the weight of the world on your shoulders, HopHead.
Working on the commute screams absolute looser to me.
Eddie, that’s twice you’ve tried to get a rise out of dave and he’s completely blanked you both times, buddy.
Is hophead bill gates in real life?
He hasn’t got either the bants or the minerals to come back to me Si.
Smalls is in a bit of a rut at the moment.
Best to just let him keep posting, he’ll find his feet eventually.
