Work from home (COVID-19)

Just got a bombshell news from my senior manager that a 14 days rotating work schedule begins with immediate effect. This measure due to the COVID-19 is kinda extreme, making me wonder if someone in my company is infected with the disease. Putting the worry on the COVID-19 aside, I'm not sure whether I should feel happy or inconvenient about this 14 days rotating work schedule. I mean how is process engineer supposed to get works done by working from home? I guess I can only reply emails and give instructions to my engineering assistants during this 14 days period.

Speaking of the COVID-19, personally I'm still facing it with a calm mind, even though Singapore is second only to China in the number of confirmed cases. I'm personally monitoring my own personal health, ensuring I do not have fever/running nose/cough & etc. On the other hand, life still goes on as per normal for me, except that I'm working from home during weekdays. I still go out for my TGIF for the past 2 weeks even though my mum advises me to stay home and stay safe.

Working from home does give me more leisure time and less stress. My work life for the past 2 months had been extremely stressful and frustrating (I may talk more about this in another post). Hence, I guess this 14 days rotating work schedule gives me more time to chill out and rearrange my thoughts in facing my work life. I give too many f*cks and get angry about things that shouldn't matter (due to my own fault). Now I guess I could just adopt a whatever mindset since I work from home and can't do much when things happen in the production line.

Anyway, just a random post that I churn out in the middle of 12+am. I really need to get a life. Nothing much better to do other than watching sneakers and basketball videos on Youtube plus some reading. So boring until I decided I write a random post in my blog. Oh man...how to survive these 14 days work from home period before my rotation to work in office? Think I prefer to work in office than work from home.

Ciao and good night peeps!
