dance 146

So I thought that after the government declared Paris on alert “maximale” and said to prioritize working from home my company would stop asking us to come into work.  To my surprise after the announcement I got an email entitled "Comment relever ensemble le défi de la reprise" (How to meet the challenge of recovery together).

In it it outlines why it's better for us to come into work.  Reasons include:

-Adapt our capacity for collective action in order to build the future

-Rediscover a framework favoring a professional / personal balance

-Socialization

-Efficiency

-Enable people to detect emotional problems in their colleagues more easily

So basically yes the government did say to prioritize working from home but for your own benefit and the benefit of others come in anyways.  How thoughtful of them.

One concrete thing they did do was close off the coffee area so we can no longer have coffee together. 

So much for the socialization argument.
