I have depression not anxiety so I don’t think you are looking for my answers but wfh isn’t a new trend. It’s been a growing trend for over 2 decades which got a push last year.
I did not work from home so most questions did not apply.
I did attend virtual meetings and they went well. I did block the camera. I will only do therapy with a camera.
If we have another lockdown, so be it. I don't want to be out around people anyway. I never liked social gatherings so I enjoyed not having to have an invite anywhere. There was no pressure. I knew I wouldn't find a wedding invitation etc and I was happy about that.
Lockdowns are for our protection. If we had another one that's the way I look at it. I will not be working from home. I will always be in the office.
One added tid bit...: traffic is a nightmare with people back to work. I loved the quick commutes. I think some people forgot how to drive
01. What are your views on Lockdown? Well I’m all for it. As for if it affected me at all the answer is no. I rarely went anywhere besides karaoke but it didn’t overly both me.
02. What do you think about this new trend of WFH? Better than going in, home is my safe place.
03. How was WFH(Work from Home) different from WFO(Work from Office)? Not as much anxiety.
04. How was your experience of working in isolation from your own house? Good, like I said home is my safe place.
05. What thoughts did you have when you were called out during a virtual meeting? I didn’t have to do virtual meetings.
06. When asked for volunteering in a group discussion during a virtual meeting, which thoughts were there?
07. How will you feel if no-one responds to your query/suggestion in a virtual meeting?
08. If someone speaks over you in a virtual meeting, what will be your natural reaction?
09. What are your views on using camera in virtual meetings?
10. How will you act if you were not able to hear your boss/teacher due to network issue?
11. What will you do if a family member/pet comes in the video accidentally?
12. In what way did lockdown affect you in general? Honestly it didn’t really bother me as I rarely went out. It did affect my motivation though, I felt tired and unmotivated to do simple stuff like housework or exercise.
13. How was your experience of restarting work from Office?
14. What will be your first thought if you come to know about another lockdown? Well where I live we NEED it. Sadly our premiere didn’t take things seriously and our hospitals are overflowing and Covid is out of control.
15. How does the idea of permanent Work from Home(WFH) sounds to you? GREAT!
