I think I read somewhere online that working from home is like a rash that everyone has, yet few care to admit it. Also, working from home has changed the entire dynamic of interpersonal office work over the last few months. Tools like Zoom and Teams have aided a great deal, but also hampered as well. My biggest grip is with accountability - one can easily swerve their productivity to the wayside. Also, nobody is talking about the stress and anxiety that comes with working from home. I can't really tell you why this happens.

I agree that although this "working from home" scenario has hit all of us like a truck, the framework has been ill-implemented, at best. I saw during a TV debate, the participants were asked whether the internet charges should be reimbursed by the company? The panel was dead silent for a moment, and then ablaze with uproarious indecision the next. The fact of the matter is that the nuance has been ignored a great deal, while being focused on the bigger picture in total. It is really the details that the devil resides in.

UK parliament announced today that they have no intention to exit the Covid lockdown anytime soon, yet neighboring country Germany, will begin slowly, yet cautiously lifting the quarantine soon enough. The UK begin reconsidering doing what Germany is doing right now, to avoid a sharp sharp decline in recoverable income. To keep afloat, take-away chains have proposed re-opening soon enough. Steps like these are the need of the hour, along with through testing and crowd management.

That is the fear, I would say. There has always been a sense of favoritism and biases of the businesses and the governments. One can only hope that the power of the people will override the people in power somehow.

PM Boris Johnson graciously thanked the NHS for their prompt treatment of his affliction. A man of the stature as the Prime Minister, could've received the best treatment in any private hospital, but he chose to stick to public service, demonstrating its brilliance. Looking at countries like the USA where people are suffering a great deal as public services are nothing to brag about. Makes one feel proud about the structural integrity of the country like the United Kingdom.

There is no reason to dismiss Nationwide's rejection of grant money. They're being responsible about the condition they have been thrown into. The pandemic has thrown a lot of businesses for a toss - even major banking institutions. The CBILS is a hard pill to swallow for so many businesses that are on the path to sinking. It provides benefits to a gross about indiscriminately. This is a problem when those who need it, have no other means to do so.

For the longest time, I had been of the mind that Lean Principles were just wishy-washy corporate terms. Although now that I've come into the big leagues, the realization of how important these are has been stark, and has been sudden. There are many subsets to this, the 5 Principles of Lean, as they are known. The best part about lean principles, is that it's a constantly evolving dynamic field of work. Good to see such progressive methods being propagated through online literature. Good Job!

Really puts all of this into perspective, now that dispensation has been coming, but none for the financial employees. A profession being left to hang dry, I fear.

On Spot! The real estate market might be crumbling through the lens of the landlord, but the market overall, is far from breaking apart. The motto is 'rent or re-purpose', and thus has been for quite some time now.

(A lot) More than half of all people my age do not have a permanent residence to their name, and are therefore staying in rented accommodations. Currently, there are a lot of tenants being coaxed to shell out rent for the month that quarantine has been implemented. Landlords, some of whom are genuinely helpless in this situation, have no financial relief to look out for - and I think there won't even be. The govt cannot imagine fortifying those affected in this mess, and thus there looks to be no end in sight for this problem.
