When I see the WFH topic mentioned I remind myself about how we got to this point in time. March 11, 2020 was my last day in the office for what I thought would be 5 days. I drove home and stopped to pick up a few groceries. What I witnessed was like a scene from a post-apocalyptic film. Bare shelves and people with a look of disbelief on their faces. That experience is forever ingrained in my memory. One week turned into two weeks and then months of self-isolation and forced lockdowns. Those of us who were fortunate enough to have a career where we could work from home adapted and turned a part of our home into a dedicated work space. We kept our companies open and for the most part productive. In the early days of the COVID pandemic, I remember using bandanas to cover my face when I ventured out to the local supermarket. In the end, I, like all of us, adjusted to our new way of living. We are still adjusting. It is vital to remember the historical significance of what we have lived through. The emotional strain and mental health issues that have emerged as a result of this crisis cannot be forgotten or trivialized. The anxiety we experience from being in a group or public setting is always present. Whether we feel that consciously or subconsciously, it is lurking somewhere in the depths of our minds. I am hopeful that the management teams at our corporations understand that a WFH policy is not a simple decision to make. It should be flexible and a hybrid policy. One that is based upon roles, responsibilities, and above all else, the performance of the individual.
