I am retired, so I don't have an issue. What about you? Are you still working in a workplace, working at home, or just not working at all during all this mess?

I’m working from home. Client meetings are being conducted virtually. We’re not missing a step, but we’re a small partnership that has always relied heavily on technology.
It’s been easy for us. That’s not the case for many.
Working from home.
Early reports from Seattle where this has been the norm for a couple of weeks is that businesses are having to adjust their productivity expectations.
Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!
I haven't change a thing, since being semi-retired I work from home and also a little out in the public. Heretofore it's business as usual. The only change is I am washing my hands a lot more than usual and doing the ole elbow bump instead of shaking hands and hugging.
But others around here have had to change some things. And it's pitiful so many businesses have closed...
Residential appraising hasn’t slowed down at all. If anything, we are busier.
I'm working from home. It has been nice. Things are slower than usual with all of our customers still busy reacting to the virus, there have not been a lot of calls or emails.
Working from a virtually vacant office building...my ADHD is too predominate for me to stay home and work...
I'm an asshole! What's your excuse?
My lab is reducing the number of concurrent workers present and discussing options in the case of total campus shutdown.
Working in the IT field, I've had the option to work from home whenever I want since 2006. I meet with my India team first thing in the morning and then work on solutioning stuff the rest of the day.
Working from the office (we are a 2-person branch), so it hasn't effected us much - just more calls than usual. Home office suspended public access to our branches today. We can do most things electronically or over the phone, so it's not too bad.
Working from home.
Our organization was already spread out across mostly Texas and some nationally. We have offices in Dallas, Austin, and Houston, but those are only used as we need them for meetings or if we want to work in the office. We were mostly working at home and traveling already. We have cut all travel completely - all meetings are by video now, so everyone is working from home only. We were set up to work this way. This hasn't hit our organization as much as many, because we were already used to it (except for cutting travel). It is the direct service jobs around the country that are hurting the most - plus those that were not set up this way.
Still working in the office, however we do have the option to work from home. I can get more done at work because I've got teenagers at home on "Coronacation" complaining about being bored. I work in IT for a wood products company. They've stopped all non-essential travel to our remote locations so video conferencing a lot. As a benefit, I'm getting much better at personal hygiene. I've washed my hands more in the last three weeks than I have in the last 10 years.
Going to all electronic signatures if possible. You'd be amazed at the number of people who don't have an email account. I think these are the people buying up all the toilet paper and using up China Virus test kits without showing symptoms.
State govt, for now, is reporting to work as usual. Ark Gov wants regular operations to continue for as long as possible with as much normalcy as possible. WFH requests are being considered by dept heads on a case-by-case basis from individuals with documentable childcare, eldercare, immuno-medical, etc. issues.
I'm having a board meeting tomorrow, but we're making arrangements to allow members to participate remotely.
