to be nervous about returning to work...

[Sorryusernamealreadyexists]

Just had a call from my boss to say I’m due back on the 3rd of September.

I’ve been furloughed since the end of March and I’m so nervous about returning. During this time there’s been a gruelling redundancy consultation which I just managed to keep my job (so I’m obviously extremely grateful I have a job)

I’m going to need some kind of reintegration into the adult world of work!!?

For those who’ve returned how was it for you? I feel like I’m returning after maternity leave!!?

I've been working from home since March but was asked to go into the office today. I was dreading it! I had nerves like it was my first day in a new job but honestly, it was absolutely fine. It was so refreshing being able to speak to different people face to face and it was nice to be out of the house. Life almost felt normal and I slipped right back in to working in an office again.

You will be absolutely fine. I would bet you'll actually enjoy being back. Remember, there will be others who are feeling exactly like you, you're not alone.
