I’ve been a SAHM for a while. My new job starts Monday it’s wfh which I haven’t done before. I’ve been sent all of my IT equipment but given no login details, which they said would be provided before Monday. I’ve also not been given any information about what’s happening on Monday etc etc.
I have tried to call the office but the manager is on AL today. What do I do come Monday?

I am starting a new job next week too, also after a break from the workforce. I know what time to arrive and what the office address is. I don’t need to know anything else, why on earth do you want your log on details now? In almost thirty years I have never had my log on details before I start work!

If they had not told me what time to arrive, I would have turned up at 9am which is the start of my agreed working day. Leave it, turn up on Monday, enjoy the sunshine until then.

Whoops. I missed the WFH bit. I would still just wait until Monday and sit by the phone from 8:30am or so.

I suppose what’s making me anxious is people not doing what they said they would.

Our new starters accounts aren't actually enabled until the morning they start.
I wouldn't stress, sit by the phone Monday.

Be proactive and call them first thing Monday morning, I wouldn't just sit by the phone waiting.

@Crimblehumblecrumble
When I started, my email came through by email to my personal email.
Though I'd also spoken with my manager beforehand and was advised that equipment assembly was to happen on my first morning.

My husband had this. He was sent his login on the Monday morning. The IT person then called everyone to check they could get in and set up their systems for them.
