20. I went with "Remote work status will continue", but it's a mixed schedule

Jun 2021

One week at home, one week Mon-Thu in the office, alternating, with Friday always working from home. The idea is to keep the office at no more than 50% capacity.

I much prefer working from home now, however, so even for my in-office days, I've been taking off after lunch to work from home during the afternoons, and no one seems to care.

I imagine we'll be officially back to 100% in-office soon, especially for our NH office, because NH is pretty damned safe now. On the other hand, I'll wangle as much WFH time as I can get from now on, and at least my immediate boss is all for that idea, for me and for himself.

Our local HR person really loves the idea of everyone being back in the office, however (she was terribly reluctant about us going back to full-time working from home during the winter spike) so we'll have to see how much weight her attitude carries.
