Week #1: I survived the first week of working from home due to the corona-virus pandemic. I am used to working in global virtual teams. Now it is much more intense and exhausting than I had thought.
With VPN, Citrix desktops and TeamViewer, I can work just as well as in the office. Unfortunately not everything can be done in one way, but still. We are connected through different channels, email, Skype for Business, LoopUp/Zoom/WebEx conferences, Microsoft Teams and Whiteboard. It’s good to see the team from time to time. We try to spend a virtual coffee break for a quarter of an hour every day. With friends and family I stay in contact through iMessage, FaceTime and (regrettably) WhatsApp . We also do our Bootcamp virtually now. From Wednesday morning to Thursday afternoon there was quite a bit of hiccup in terms of network connection and also telephony, but by now it’s much better
