Month: May 2021

It’s nice taking a break from the headlines to be here. And, I wouldn’t want you anywhere but here right now. So, let’s see if you can stay with me for the duration of this post and learn something you either didn’t know and/or you can benefit from…

It’s good to be able to manage workloads independently. It’s also good to be able to maximize productivity by utilizing teamwork–both internally and externally.

What’s optimal is to have both of these skills in spades so you can adapt to whatever environments you may find yourself working in.

I saw a statistic that over 60% of the workforce is working remotely.

That figure is staggering to me.

The pandemic has obviously contributed to the rise of the mobile office and working at home.

Still, it’s a really abrupt change to experience. I’ve been working a long, long time, and I can’t say that I’ve lived through anything else quite like it.

If you’ve been working at home for a while, are you one of those individuals who now prefer it over going into the office?

I can understand if so.

The remote workforce was already growing pre-pandemic.

Extroverted workers were grappling with the idea of how they were going to get their co-worker fixes when they are working from home.

Now with the economy and things opening back up, are you eager to return to the office?

Since the pandemic onset, I know many have changed their views on working full-time from home.

Many introverts love it, and those happy extroverts denied traditional office access due to pandemic-related restrictions have learned to at least tolerate it.

I’m predicting workers’ return to offices will not be in the numbers they were pre-pandemic.

After all, having only lean operating staff and corresponding essential resources is the new order of the day.

You’re only as good as your last column.

May Day this year features the Kentucky Derby. I can’t believe the first Derby was way back in 1875.

If you tire of yourself easily, is it safe to say that you consider yourself boring during these times?

I’m trying to drink more water and go to the bathroom less. I know it’s never been done, but there’s always a first time for everything.

Guess I like a challenge.

Can you be both a bookcase and a hard case at the same time? Please let me know.

I’m not too fond of pillows with feather quills that poke through the pillowcase and wake you up when they stick you in the face.

This leads me to this… can a pillowcase ever be considered a hard case? You don’t have to let me know about this one, thank you, kindly. I think I know the answer.

Transported a baby bunny back to what I thought was its burrow. I felt good about it.

Time off has always been one of the most important things related to having a job.

It seems a keyboard should be called a cat. This way you’d have a cat and mouse with your computer. It just sounds more sensible to me. A keyboard really isn’t a board that holds keys.

If you live in a heavily populated suburb and work at home, how can you be considered a remote worker?
