Project manager for cultural project with a museum. I've just gone totally freelance and this will be the only thing I do for a while. I am an artist so can make art but not much else. Much of the work I do as an artist involves working with communities. So won't happen for a while.

Teacher- secondary. Moved to online when lockdown came to Italy last week.

new0rules · 20/03/2020 13:26

Communications (for a specialist area) for a global bank. I was put on wfh for the foreseeable last Friday. I could have done it sooner easily and am annoyed I wasn’t allowed to - needless spreading.

AndNoneForGretchenWieners · 20/03/2020 13:37

Civil servant in one of the critical departments. We are all pretty much working from home. Our offices are open but we are discouraged from going in.

I'm a uni administrator. Thankful for Google Drive right now!

FenellaVelour · 20/03/2020 14:05

Social worker. Fortunately can adapt my role to work entirely from home, I’m very lucky.

We’re a networking and remote working tech company. Everyone is working from home except two people in dispatch, who are both under 25 and without dependents.

SallyGardens · 20/03/2020 16:29

I'm a Maths teacher and DH is a Sys Admin in a multi-national - both working from home since last Friday when the schools in Ireland were closed and other businesses were asked to move to home working where possible. We also have 3 teenagers doing schoolwork online, one in an exam year, so our broadband is getting tested to its limit.

NotMeNoNo · 20/03/2020 16:39

Designer and manager in an engineering firm. 100% working at home since Tuesday, already getting MS Teams fatigue! I've been WFH odd days for a while so do have a decent set up.

I’m on mat leave but my mat cover is WFH so I would be too (will be if this isn’t over by the Summer!) - senior manager in a faculty of a University.

DH is permanently WFH in financial services.

Software Engineer. My company have invested heavily in remote working recently which is just as well! They've also spent a lot on equipment for my 'office' e.g. a big monitor.
