Day 1 of Coronavirus WFH

Microbe

The Coronavirus is spreading, and The Shop has said that if we aren't comfortable going into the office, it is acceptable to work from home (WFH) - after checking with your manager. Since I'd checked with my manager on just this issue last week, I was ready to start this week WFH for sure.

I don't believe the office is bad... but the Metro and Shuttle are going to be horrible - simply because many people will have the light version of the disease and spread it to many others. That's not their fault - they wouldn't necessarily know... but I could get it - and then unwittingly spread it to others. That's bad.

So I'm going to WFH and see how things play out. After all... I'm every bit as productive here as I am at the office.
