I think telecommuting is going to become a much more attractive option than C & D. Those are expensive, letting people work remotely is a lot cheaper l. At the end of the day, I think most of it will come down to money

Same! I imagine they’ll have agencies at 50% in-office capacity with everyone else telecommuting.

I’m not going back until there’s a vaccine. But I would guess A,C and E for the suckers who do.

likefunny

I hear ya. Surprised at how many business are planning to reopen with no vaccine in market and minimal testing in states.

Yes. A, C and E and pto policies for anyone with a fever of family member who is ill. And wfh from anyone hi risk in order to thin out the ranks. And less meetings with closed doors. More windows open. I think it’ll happen in July.
And hand washing reminders everywhere
And purelle everywhere and deep cleaning at night (have to leave your desk bare so everything can be wiped, etc)

With so many people asymptomatic, will temp checks prevent anything? Seem like smoke and mirrors

I feel the same way and I’m unsure if people will be receptive to getting their temperatures checked everyday(or every other day) before they enter the office.

We just found out it’ll be everything you listed, except for gloves
