That said, had the second jab last week and have a matter that's going to grow into more work than has been the case, so will probably start going back next week, but going to be even less tethered to face time than I ever was (he says as someone who mostly kinda sorta works for himself).

We've been going in one day a week on a staggered basis since February. I think this is going to last awhile because a lot of us have shown to being more productive at home than we were in the office. I know I certainly am. I do not at all miss a lot of the office aspects, and it turns out if I can walk around a lot when I'm on the phone, I'm thinking better. It's in no one's interest for me to be pacing up and down the halls while talking through issues with a team of clinicians.
