Jun 2020

My organization gave us a choice to either work remotely or come in the office. I’m a California government employee. At first, most stayed home. Now, my department of 47 has about 40 back (most that have stayed away did to home school children at home). Most have expressed that they missed the human interaction and glad to be back in the office environment. I am the only one that I know in our entire building of about 300 who contracted covid 19. The worst 3 weeks of my life.
