My company finally came to their senses and told all people able to work from home to do so for the next few weeks. I got a text from my boss telling me this last night at 6pm...I also do not have a real office area in my home . So my desk is this makeshift one in our spare bedroom that is in the middle of being redone.

I’ve been trying to use my personal computer as a second monitor but my work computer does not want to connect to it. I may be going in to work today or tomorrow to grab a monitor at the very least. Working off one laptop monitor as an engineer suuuuucks.

I’ve been on a couch in my basement all week. It sucks ass, but I’m super busy working on contingency plans and reporting.

My company gave the go ahead to bring monitors or whatever home (we’re wfh through April 3 at least), but I haven’t had a chance to get over there yet.

Finance also sucks on a single laptop monitor. I fully intend to grab my docking station and both monitors.

Stay safe!

I don’t know that I’d be able to work from a couch. Still deciding whether I want to bring my gigantic monitor from work or just the smaller one. I am liking my waist high “ desk” though...it’s nice to be able to stand up and work. Though I think I’ll need to mount a monitor up high so I’m not looking down.

You stay safe as well! It will be an interesting rest of the year.
