How was work today?

Or study, or caring, or the thing that takes your hours. — asked by Esi

OssianTromsø, NO

Caring, which is the work, and nobody counts it.

Ottoline That waiter deserves something.

RohanPune, IN

Fine. Genuinely fine. Boring even.

OttiHarrogate, UK

A meeting that could have been an email, and a walk at lunch that saved it.

9

GwynforLlanidloes, UK

Good day. I did the thing I am actually good at and got left alone to do it.

8

EdwynNewcastle, UK

Working from home, which makes the injection day much easier.

Ike Thank you for the boring week. Genuinely.

Bell ANorwich, UK

I told my manager and she was better about it than I had any right to expect.

TiborBratislava, SK

Long. Twelve hours and I am writing this in the car park.

Jonty Please do ring in the morning. Not to alarm you — just, ring.

NkemPort Harcourt, NG

Retired, so my work is the allotment, and the allotment has been going well.

NúriaBarcelona, ES

Physical work in the heat and I have learned about hydration the hard way.

9

GildaTrieste, IT

Hard. Nausea in a job where you cannot step away.

7

Bass Second person this week to say that. Going to mention it at my own review.

NolwennRennes, FR

Fine. Genuinely fine. Boring even.

Full clinic and I gave out advice I do not take myself, as usual.

8

NemoneLewes, UK

Quiet. I got a proper lunch break for the first time in weeks.

4

YannickBrussels, BE

Fine. I have told nobody at work and it has been easier than expected.

Occupational health were surprisingly good about it. Two emails and a locked drawer.

Term has started and my life is not my own until half term.
