It’s the idea of the bogs (not you, ewerk) that puts me off going to the pub. I also find it weird how desperate people appear to be to go abroad. 

This, not only the thought of an airport and then the plane but the isolation risk on return, zero sympathy for those who whinge about the "panic to get home"

I've been working from home for 15 years and I don't miss any of these things. Am I doing capitalism wrong?

 

 

[Dr Gloom 22151]

i'm desperate to ride the corona carriages back to work, if only for the proper bants and taking the lift 

[Dr Gloom 22151]

hold the phone - putting on a tie? 

i'm in

I generally like the people I work with and miss some of the social interaction but even then, none of that resonates with me at all  the fuckers in charge are so out of touch it’s untrue. And they only want you to commute so you’ll spend more money. 

[Tom 14013]

The idea of going back into the office fills me with a deep sense of dread. 

I can do my job from home, why waste petrol?

They only want you back so their mates' property portfolio's don't crumble

Alex definitely tried and failed to set an office trend with Wacky Tie Wednesdays.

50% of the shit on that list is like "come back to the office and waste time/be unproductive" not to mention the probably large wedge some prick got paid to come up with it !!!

[Tom 14013]

It seems like they’ve listed about 6 proper anxiety triggers without even realising it. 

Office Gossip “they’re not fucking happy with this furlough shite and are gonna be bringing in mandatory paycuts & some redundancies...oh and apparently that blokes an alcoholic” 

Hearing an alarm  

 

etc etc

There was a best novelty sock competition which I refrained from entering 

[Tom 14013]

I would have forgiven you for taking an AR15 to work tbh

You should’ve actually “entered” a sock. 
 

Top prize, and the sack.

“Hearing an alarm” is enough to have me reaching for the cyanide most mornings so that had me annoyed literally immediately 

[Tom 14013]

Same  

I’m working from home but fuck me it’s depressing. The only thing more depressing is the thought of going back with all the yellow and black tape etc

'Second family'

 

Some canny sorts I work with but also some borderline scum, wankers, boring cunts, greedy bastards, arselickers and almost unemployables, (but we'll take them via an agency) and finally an almost psychopathic management/HR. 

 

I'd take working from home if I had the choice, thanks.

“A cheeky afternoon in the sun” ffs.

 

Who writes this shit? Someone who has never worked in an office evidently 

[Alex 35587]

That advertising campaign will have cost the taxpayer an absolute fortune as well. Any links between the agency used and senior members of the Tory party will be purely coincidental

That and you could just sit in the garden if you wanted to if you were working from home
