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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
