I do, I do indeed! At least for another month or so. They are summer hours.

lessismore

there should be summer hours for us too!!! Tho I need that in winter as well How is it in Winter for you?

KatB

Not too bad, but yes, that should be our schedule year round! But I try and go in early on snowy days and leave early. Depends on when the snow hits. As long as we put in a full day, we can set our own hours, within reason.

I understand. Wish we could be working from home in normal circumstances too tbh. I mean if we won't need to be at work physically why we need to go to to the work? (For me at least ) Is your work more physical?

KatB

It is. I work in manufacturing. I help get the signs ready, after they are printed and cut. Plus I’m also quality control. But if I could work from home, I would.

lessismore

I see. Surely you would. At least some of the days that suits for you.

Well my work is mostly on computer (internet), research, writing, analyzing, and involves lots of meetings, but since we can have our meetings online they could have kept us working from home :/

KatB

If they can, why don’t they let you work from home? My nephew is working from home for the rest of the year.

lessismore

that's good for your nephew, in what job he is?

because they opened everywhere even tho the pandemic is not going anywhere not even better... I wasn't feeling good so I got a short sick leave

KatB

He is a financial advisor, so he can easily work from home. NH isn’t so bad, for the moment.

lessismore

I see.

Well I wish I had that opportunity...

KatB

Me too! I would be all over that!

lessismore

Everyone who needs it and available/suitable should have that opportunity.

KatB

I agree. It would also cut down on traffic and overhead costs at work.

lessismore

exactly!!! if only governments would care enough...

KatB

Well, in this case, it’s up to the employers. Yeah Govmt can pass a law but it really should and is up to the employers. Like my nephews company voluntarily instructed their employees to work from home and they still are.
