New advice doesn't change anything. Not been in the office since March last year. Thought I'd miss it & did contemplate going back in say 1 day a week but as time has gone on I've come to realise that I just can't be arsed with a 50 minute drive plus having to dodge rush-hour etc. It'll be a real shock to the system if/when I need to go in.
Didn't realize starting a new job where its just working from home be quiet difficult.
Small firm, people who I need to speak with no always around.
Hopefully it improves for my sanity
I went to hybrid working (after working from home for a year) around August, 2 days in, 3 at home.
Been told we're working from home from next week.
Don't mind working at home though, I don't hybrid either, good for having chats with people, I just hate the commute. Would never want to go back to full time in the office, definitely not any time soon anyway.

Was going in twice a week since Aug 2020, upped to 3 a week in at the start of dec. Now down to 1 a week in from Monday due to the new rules.
My job could be done fully wfh but I like going in for some sanity and a break. After the rules relax I hope to go back to 2 a week in rather than 3 but see what happens!

I did one day last time before being told to work from home again
with tomorrow it’ll probably be 4 days this time before being told to work from home again
but the horrendous 2 hour journey home tonight reminded me why I want to work from home permanently

2 days in office is really perfect
Anymore, and it’s costly, tiring and a hinderance for my actual job.

I’ve been working from home since the end of February 2020 - just before it became a requirement.
been going back a couple of days a week and loved it.
I really don’t like not being able to go into the office, I miss the banter and the people. I miss laughing with colleagues and it’s not the same on Teams.
