How did you cope during the lickdown ?
with difficulty.
Managed to work from home 2 days a week, but was starting real early and finishing real late and was knackered. Never able to really educate my daughter to much standard and quality of my work was not close to that of being in office
don’t get me wrong. I managed. And if happened again would likely manage again. I’m lucky. And for now have understanding employers and colleagues. But not sure how long that would last.
and not sure how my own sanity / health would stand up to it
starting around 5 and working around educating my little girl. Then working again into evening. Conscious I was not doing as good a job as if in office, or work I was doing was taking longer, as harder to use work laptop than the pc I have in office with dual monitors etc
and then there is my daughter, she only 6 and she has some educational needs which I’ll not bore you with, but which I’m just not capable of giving her to the standards of her teachers. And she missed her friends what with being an only child. All through that time she never saw another child at all
as said, I managed, but it wasn’t easy. But I’m grateful she has the education available to her again
I would imagine for a huge number of people, people not as fortunate as me it was a real nightmare.
