ABSENCE MAKES THE HEART GROW FONDER
I never thought I’d say, ‘I wanna go back to work.’
It’s nice that the company arranged working remotely from home by computer, but, I want to go to the break room for a mug of the world’s worst coffee, or ruin my diet with a donut or cake – ‘cause it’s always someone’s birthday. I miss the office gossip, politics, and resident weirdo. I miss the water-cooler sports discussions, even if I hate sports. I even miss breathe-on-you, Lecherous Lennie’s tales of barroom conquests – all the little things that used to irk me.
This “NEW NORMAL” is getting old, fast.
