At my work we have:

- canceled all business conferences and trade show attendance.

- banned all company travel.

- shut down all meetings (including local safety meetings, etc.)

- all non-essentiel personnel worked from home to flush out computer problems, etc. should that become mandatory.

IMO companies are using this experience to find out which employees add value and which don't. I sure hope you're one of the essential ones.





JK I don't even know you.

We are all told to work from home beginning Monday until some time in April. Lucky to work in a job/company that allows me to do this.

We got a memo saying don’t sneeze on each other, stand close to each other or come to work sick. Otherwise BE AT WORK

All we've really done so far is have a plan in place in case we're forced to close and wrok from home. Only a few of our staff can actually do any work from home, so still uncertain how that's going to shake out. Client meetings are still going on, though that may change this week.

Pretty much the same except safety meetings. Those people have just been instructed to not stand in close proximity of one another. And for those that share offices or work in the cubicles, supervisors are to decide who comes to the office and who works remote.

Called a mandatory meeting yesterday to presumably talk about COVID-19 precautions. Turns out it was to teach us, like we were dipshits, how to use Zoom to have meetings with clients.

Everyone is working remotely. Most of us already did anyways. No restrictions on travel, but most things people were traveling to have been cancelled.
