I'm still working but on fewer hours which is honestly ideal. Going to work is nice because it breaks up the days a it but then time off is never to be sniffed at |

Still working and welcome the quietness of the roads apart from some idiot trying to get me to drive faster in windy wet countryside roads at 6.30 this morning. Very annoying. I wish I was in isolation as its really stressful at work   |

Fortunate enough to still have work.
I did however have to tell people at work today they were going home to be put on the 80%.
I still feel sick 
I know it's better than losing your job but still a significant pay cut for some. |

I’d love to be at home, keeping myself safe. Unfortunately I work somewhere where I have to be around people, and my job can not be stopped under any circumstances.
So in answer to your question, I don’t miss it as I’m still there  |

I'm working from home but I miss being in the office. I can just never get very much done at home and it makes me feel terrible being so unproductive.
Appreciate I've still got it pretty easy though comparatively. |

Working from home and I can see it being permanent, even after the pandemic.
Advantages, got the telly on, sneaky beer and the commute takes less than a minute.
Disadvantages, not feeling I’m part of a team, we video chat but it’s not the same. Not all systems work well with my broadband at times. |

I would love to be in work, I’m a temp worker in finance so when this all started I had my contract terminated. Easier to terminate and not pay more wages I guess. The real kicker is there is no protection for people like me, not in a permanent job and not self employed so no bailout. If not for my husband there would be no income coming into this household. Only saving grace is we have a small emergency fund however that won’t last more than 3 months. |

Mrs has had all her leave cancelled, doing 12hr shifts at hospital was so looking forward to having some time off Easter.
Goes to work petrified every day.
I'm sure she would be happy to swap with someone. |

Yes, I'm missing it. My work place is quite a relaxing environment and most of my colleagues are lovely. I miss the routine of it all to, although I am loving my lie ins and being all together  |

Nope. I was about to start a new job just before lockdown kicked in, having not started it I've no way of knowing if it was going to be the best thing since sliced bread or hell on earth.
However a friend of mine is starting a commodities broking outfit and would like me to be involved so potentially that could turn into a work-from-home opportunity with much greater earnings potential so there's a possible silver lining on its way. |

This could be the start of a lot of companies re thinking how they work this home working could end up being the norm for some as less overheads to pay if companies don't need there big offices fortunately for me I'm still working and getting to see some very nice views  |

I always thought working from home full time would be awesome but now realising it's not that great. Like all things it's great when you want to do it but when you have to do it it's shit. But counting my blessings that I can do it. But never thought I'd admit I miss going into the office |
