What is your work situation at present?

[Smokey888]

Supposed to go in 3 times a week but have been going in once a week.

 

[yebocan]

WFH - full time

Need to get jabbed as business has implemented mandatory vaccinations to pop into any of the buildings. Business unit most likely will have catch up meetings at work, once in a while.

 

[ShaunSA]

Full time office since June 2020. WFH was never my reality unfortunately.

May 2020 for me

 

[Athos]

WFH full time since March 24th 2020. Been a bit of a love hate relationship. Like a rollercoaster up and down.

 

[elf_lord_ZC5]

I dont see a "fcking unfair" option in the list

 

[karnuffel]

Im currently working from home permanently. We can use the office space if we really need to, but need to get approval from HR.

 

[obsidian86]

I don't work in an office

 

[JacksonR]

Only working on Projects

 

[lowriderza]

It varies between onsite and offsite between my home and my office/workshop.

 

[SykomantiS]

At this point in time I get to choose whether I want to work from home or the office. Hoping it stays that way indefinitely.

My question to those that go into the office is what hardware do you use?

If you work from home and at the office you probably need something portable which means severely hobbled performance because of the form factor and power consumption constraints?

Or can you get affordable portable machines with 28" 4K displays, 64GB RAM and 8+ core processors these days?

[xrapidx]

Working from home permanently, but accepted another position so might change in a few months

 

[TofuMofu]

Work from home permanently. Even semigrated to Cape Town (fiance got a job offer there so we had no reason to not take it).

 

[noxibox]

No specific rule, but my whole team is in agreement that the office will not be a viable option until all the regulations are dropped. Even after that it will be hybrid and the ratio of time spent in each location will be up to each team.

In general the people I work with and friends who do jobs that can be done remotely are all perplexed by the various desperate attempts to get people back into offices.

We worked on laptops anyway. No real call for such extreme specifications. A standard i7 processor, 32Gb of RAM and an HD screen are perfectly adequate. However those who wanted could get an external display in the office. I have my own extra screen at home, but hardly ever use it.
