My schedule has changed every week since this started. Last week I worked from home, this week it's two days in the office and two days from home, with one day given to us. Next week they want everyone working 30 hours in the office and a day given to us, so basically no more work from home for me after this week and I just set it all up a week and a half or so ago.

I work in a unit of only 8 people in a larger agency (so we have been doing something different than what others have been instructed) but I know these orders are coming down from the top. They 'received feedback' or something.. what is the point in coming back in for 30 hours a week and just giving us a day? They said three 10-hour days but I asked if I could just do four regular working days.

Damn. That seems...retarded.

The only thing that keeps changing for me is the length of working from home, which is now all of April.

Two small kids at home so I've given up on attempting 7-5 all the way through, and rather do mornings, stop mid-day around 2 when shite starts breaking down at home, then evenings 9-11

I'm in Talent Acquisition at my company and we are under a hiring freeze right now. I'm just waiting to be laid off at this point. I'm salary and have nothing to do right now. It's very uncomfortable.

I was told I was off for three weeks paid.

After one day, a coworker begged me to come in because he screwed a bunch of files up and people were getting pissed.

Been working 12 hour days ever since.

It's bullshite.

bullshite I intend to remind then of every minute of every day for as long as I'm here.

Big time. Doing about 15% of our usual sales. Laid off 66 people and trying to keep the doors open. Take out and delivery isnt cutting it. Can only cut so much costs.

I was promoted, I’m working less hours and getting the same pay. I’m very grateful. Weird times.

I'm sorry that you and businesses like your are struggling. (I'm assuming restaurant.) It sucks to think about all of the great restaurants this country will lose. I know of several restaurants and bars that have already folded this month.

For me, I do online sales. It sounds like I shouldn't be impacted, but obviously people are worried about money and aren't buying as much. Plus, all the FedEx drop off locations near me have closed. So I'm relying on the Post Office which breaks stuff and then denies claims.
