My small firm won’t be in the office through July. Reevaluate in August. The problem in Chicago, like NYC, is the public transportation. Most of us take trains or the el and they aren’t safe and who knows when they will be. We are all working fine from home, someone ends up going to the office 1 x week for mail and fed ex.
