The pandemic and your job

My older brother has told me he's working significantly more hours from home than he was when working from his office. He has also told me he's getting worn down, especially with his supervisory duties (which he's always disliked). To put his remarks in context, before now he's never complained of being over-worked, and has instead told me he loves few things more in life that the long hours he spends working. This is the first time he's come up against too much work for him. And you can hear it in his voice these days.

I am a high school special education teacher for a behavior program. I am VERY grateful I still have a job, but the workload and stress have certainly increased. The paperwork has doubled, since we are scrambling to figure out how to meet the requirements of our students' IEPs with many of them on remote learning plans while creating two sets of lessons for in-person and remote. We are also working hard to maintain extremely sanitary conditions in an environment that typically has the culture of a petri dish.

The students are actually doing fairly well. I have some highly anxious staff members I manage, so I find myself using my emotional support skills more on the adults than the students.

I was thinking about the pandemic and people's jobs (including mine). How's it going at work? What's different because of the pandemic?
I have been teaching mostly from home in the online mode for the last year and a half.

I find I am now waiting to see what effect this omicron variant has on my job. Gov declared a state of emergency.....before any confirmed cases of omicron have been found..... don't think it will make a difference, but there is always the possibility that we start working 100% from home again.....which is actually fine with me

Well... I lost my job due to the pandemic and it was a terrible period of my life. I even got payday loans Payday Loans in North Carolina (NC) Online, Get Short Term Cash Advance Near Me Now - MaybeLoan several times. Anyway, I decided to try making money on the internet. It was hard but I didn't give up. To be honest, there are so many options online, everything we need is patience and effort. Currently, I am thinking about starting my own business and I hope it will work out.
Good luck, hope things work out well for you...

A long commute ? My daughter and her husband are still working forty hour at home arrangements. She works for an organization that monitors and grades young doctor's performance interviewing first appointment patients. They use actors that are given symptoms and they report if the docs use proper procedures and prescribe correctly.
