Two months ago, my fully remote job of 3 years began a campaign to bring all employees back to office. This confused me, as I was originally hired to be fully remote. I lost that status because we recently moved into a temporary apartment while we shop for our first home. 1/ — Jauwn (@Jauwnio) […]
I haven’t written a lot about Covid lately but it’s interesting to reflect on how our attitudes and therefore, our language, changes. For instance, I have started saying “Coming out of Covid” to refer to our current situation and as a reflection of what I see in wider society – very little masking (including myself […]
