WFH is my over 30 yr normal, but DH moved his office home a month ago— no need to keep his office build. I’m thankful we had unused space for his office so we each have our own.

We were sent to work from home on 13.3.2020. then were gradually back to office and by summer we were fully back. Sent home again in November and have been working from home since. But because of nature of my work I do go to office 1-2 days per week to perform tasks that are not possible to do from home.

I'm still working from home, but faculty just got permission to go back into our offices when needed, and our research labs can move to 50% capacity! We're all vaccinated. So starting this week or next, I'll try to make the big shift back, but I have to admit that working from home is really pleasant. I desperately miss in-person interaction, but my house is a lovely place to work.

My research group was much like Diana described: total shutdown for a few months at the beginning, then one person allowed in for every 4 lab benches. So they're working in shifts, but I'm mostly staying home because my own work these days is either computer analysis or supervising. And I'm teaching online this semester, but fall semester will be in person.

I've been working from home (drainage engineer) since mid-March 2020 and my three kids were doing remote school too. They just started back with in-school learning for the last 6 weeks of the school year. My office isn't planning to open until the fall. I don't think we'll ever be back to normal though. Lots of people decided they like working from home (although almost everyone wants some time in the office) and it's hard to say we can't do our jobs from home after we've doing them for a whole year.

NM locked down early and hard. The whole state is still under a mask mandate for indoor and outdoor activities and my county is only allowing 25% capacity for business/restaurants. We're one of the poorest states in the US, have a high minority population which COVID disproportionally affects, and don't have the health resources that other states have. Luckily our governor was formerly the state's Secretary of Health so she's done a great job with managing the pandemic here and getting vaccines rolled out. NM has one of the highest percent vaccinated populations in the US. I get my second shot on Friday!
