I will resist returning to the office anytime soon and I know my boss will back me up.

We're normally allowed to work remote one or two days a week, so technically our team was prepared. We only needed the okay to not go back into the office.

I feel for people who can't work remotely. It is a great relief to me. But then, I am in or approaching the "at risk" age range with some medical issues. If my company thinks it wants me to be alive and working for them a year from now, they probably shouldn't push this thing.
