I retired about 6 years ago, so it's a no from me. My empathy does go out to everyone who has been affected by this pandemic though. I know a few people who have lost their jobs because of it

I hope all goes well for you OP, and everyone else who is returning to the new normal x

I have worked throughout from home. All my other colleagues have been on furlough.

I had my first half day holiday on Friday which was brilliant.

As we are based in central London it will be some time yet before we return to the office.

I am central London based but my team is in Birmingham I have worked from home for the last nearly 5.5months which is fine as I am a remote worker for my team anyway

I have worked all through lockdown and that includes moving to this role as this was agreed back in January. Do I miss the office umm yes and no. I miss the separation between work and home life but I don’t miss the commute

Worked all the way through in the office, without a single day off for the first 3 months (not even weekends or Bank Holidays, but that was my choice to make sure things got done).

I've been working away all through but good friends of mine were off. And while yes there have been times I'd love to have been off at least I know I have a job. The worry and stress some of them have gone through haa been awful. Sadly some have lost their jobs others are still in limbo.

I went back when I could but we still have 5 on furlough. Our manager was told to operate on 70% of the wages budget which we are. H/O know we can cope (just!) so I'd be surprised if the people that didn't come back will

We started 50% back in to the office now, so two days this week and three next. I have been working consistently at home since this started. I feel I’m one of the lucky ones as our business has profited from the virus as everyone shopping online. So I never had the fear of losing my job, unlike some other people I know

We’ve both worked throughout apart from a bit of annual leave. We both worked from home briefly at the start but returned to normal after a few weeks. Just thankful to both still have our jobs.

Worked right through - often doing 12/14 hr days,

Keeping the machine going in a factory.

Would have been nice to have some time of paid even on 80% but there we go.

My Daughter has been off on furlough from when theatres shut and as she was freelance for lots of company's is much better off financially.

I've been working all way through, just from home, which has been immensely stressful. Had only the odd day off since January. I had surgery 10 days ago, so this period of 2 weeks enforced rest is the longest period I've had off work since December 2019. Our teaching centre reopens fully in the second week of September but I've been going in throughout the pandemic periodically because we needed to access student's work on paper from earlier in the year etc, so I have no issue going back. I work in international education........
